By Marisa Wong
Morgantown, W.Va., Oct. 30 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $824,000 of contingent income securities due Oct. 29, 2032 linked to the Russell 2000 index and the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.
The coupon will be fixed at 6.25% for the first five years. After that, the notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 6.25% if each index closes at or above its 60% coupon barrier on the review date for that quarter.
The payout at maturity will be par unless either index finishes below its 50% downside threshold, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worse performing index.
Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
