New Issue: Morgan Stanley sells $1.82 million 6% contingent income autocalls tied to S&P, Russell, Dow

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, March 8 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $1.82 million of contingent income autocallable securities due Jan. 31, 2033 linked to the least performing of the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the S&P 500 index and the Russell 2000 index according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annualized rate of 6% if each index closes at or above 75% coupon barrier on determination date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if each index closes at or above its initial level on any call review date after one year.

The payout at maturity will be par unless any index finishes below its 60% downside threshold, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worst performing index.

The notes will be guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
