New Issue: Morgan Stanley sells $1 million autocallable jump securities on Dow, Russell

By Kiku Steinfeld

Chicago, May 21 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $1 million of 0% jump securities with autocallable feature due May 20, 2025 linked to the worst performing of the Dow Jones industrial average and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

The notes will be automatically called at par plus 13.5% per year if each index closes at or above its call level on any annual determination date. The call level for each index will be 95% of its initial level.

If the notes are not called and the final level of each index is greater than or equal to 95% of its initial level, the payout at maturity will be par plus 67.5%.

If the final level of the worst performing index is less than 95% of its initial level but greater than or equal to its downside threshold level, 70% of its initial level, the payout will be par.

If the final level of either index is less than its downside threshold level, investors will lose 1% for every 1% the lesser-performing index declines from its initial level.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
