New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $474,000 contingent income autocalls on ARK ETF

By Taylor Fox

New York, Feb. 16 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $474,000 of contingent income autocallable securities due July 26, 2022 linked to the ARK Innovation ETF, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If the fund close at or above the coupon threshold level, 60% of the initial price, on a monthly determination date, the notes will pay a contingent payment that month at an annualized rate of 13%.

The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if the fund closes at or above the call threshold, 100% of the stock’s initial price, on any quarterly determination date other than the final one after six months.

If the final fund price is greater than or equal to the downside threshold level, 60% of the initial price, the payout at maturity will be par. Otherwise, investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the final fund price is less than the initial fund price.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
