New Issue: Morgan Stanley sells $2.4 million contingent income buffered securities on three indexes

By William Gullotti

Buffalo, N.Y., March 17 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $2.4 million of contingent income buffered securities due Sept. 14, 2023 tied to the worst performing of the Russell 2000 index, the Nasdaq-100 index and the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a monthly contingent coupon at the rate of 6.5% per year if each index closes at or above its coupon barrier level, 80% of its initial level, on the observation date that period.

If all indexes finish at or above the buffer level, 80% of the initial level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon.

Otherwise, investors will lose 1% for every 1% decline of the worst performer beyond 20%.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
