New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $1.53 million contingent income buffered securities on Russell

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, July 20 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $1.53 million of contingent income buffered securities due July 12, 2023 linked to the common stocks of Amazon.com, Inc., Microsoft Corp. and Oracle Corp., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annualized rate of 3% if the laggard stock closes at or above the 50% coupon barrier level on the determination date for that quarter. Otherwise, no coupon will be paid.

If the final share price of each stock is greater than or equal to 70% of its initial share price, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final contingent quarterly coupon.

If the final share price of any stock is less than 70% of its initial share price, investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the laggard stock declines beyond 30%. If the final share price of each stock is greater than or equal to its coupon barrier level, investors will also receive the final contingent quarterly coupon.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
