By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, May 2 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $26.99 million of contingent income autocallable securities due May 1, 2020 linked to the common stock of Bank of America 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 annual rate of 9.7% if the shares close at or above the 80% downside threshold on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if the shares close at or above their initial level on any of the first 11 determination dates.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon unless the shares finish below the downside threshold, in which case investors will lose 1% for each 1% decline.
