By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, July 6 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $2 million 0% trigger gears securities due June 30, 2025 linked to a basket of indexes, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The basket consists of the Euro Stoxx 50 index with a 40% weight, the FTSE 100 index with a 20% weight, the Nikkei 225 index with a 20% weight, the Swiss Market index with a 7.5% weight, the S&P/ASX 200 index with a 7.5% weight and the Hang Seng index with a 5% weight.

If the basket finishes above the initial level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the upside gearing of 3.25 times the gain.

If the basket falls but finishes at or above the 50% downside threshold level, the payout will be par.

Otherwise, investors will lose 1% for each 1% decline.
