New Issue: Morgan Stanley sells $250,000 14% contingent income buffered autocallables on ETFs

Chicago, Feb. 13 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $250,000 of contingent income buffered autocallable securities due March 2, 2026 linked to the worst performing of the Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund and the VanEck Vectors Oil Services ETF, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Investors will receive a coupon of 14%, paid monthly, if each underlying fund closes at or above its 80% coupon barrier on the related monthly observation date.

The securities will be called automatically starting Nov. 30, 2023 at par if the price of each underlying fund is greater than or equal to its initial price on any quarterly call determination date.

At maturity the payout will be par unless either fund declines by more than its 15% buffer in which case investors will be exposed to the decline of the worst performing fund beyond the buffer.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.
