New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $16.00 million trigger callable notes on three indexes

By Marisa Wong

Los Angeles, Oct. 30 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $15,997,000 of trigger callable contingent yield notes with daily coupon observation due Aug. 2, 2022 linked to the least performing of the S&P 500 index, the Russell 2000 index and the Nasdaq-100 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

Each quarter, the notes pay a contingent coupon at a rate of 11.49% per year if each index closes at or above its coupon barrier, 70% of its initial level, on each day that quarter.

The notes are callable at par of $10 plus any coupon due on any quarterly coupon payment date.

If the notes are not called and each index finishes at or above its downside threshold, 55% of its initial level, the payout at maturity will be par. Otherwise, investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the least-performing index’s final level is below its initial level.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the underwriter, and UBS Financial Services Inc. is the dealer.
