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

By Sarah Lizee

Olympia, Wash., May 1 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $1 million of 0% jump securities with autocallable feature due May 1, 2025 linked to the lesser 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 will be automatically called at par plus 9.5% per year if each index closes at or above its call level on any annual determination date. The call level will be 95% of the initial level.

If the notes are not called and the final level of each index is greater than or equal to its call level, the payout at maturity will be par plus 47.5%.

If the final level of either index is less than its call level but the final level of each index is 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% that the lesser-performing index declines from its initial level.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
