By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Sept. 27 - Morgan Stanley plans to price 0% trigger jump securities due October 2017 linked to the iShares FTSE China 25 index fund, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If the fund finishes above its initial level, the payout at maturity will be par of $10 plus the greater of any gain and an upside payment of $4.10 to $4.30 per note. The exact deal terms will be set at pricing.

Investors will receive par if the shares fall by up to 50% and will be fully exposed to any losses if the shares fall beyond the 50% trigger.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent, and Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC is the dealer.

The notes will price in September and settle in October.

The Cusip number is 61755S701.
