New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $4 million fixed-to-floaters on leveraged CMS curve, indexes

By Marisa Wong

Morgantown, W.Va., July 24 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $4 million of fixed-to-floating securities due July 31, 2037 linked to the S&P 500 index and the Russell 2000 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 8% for the first three years. After that, interest will accrue at an annual rate equal to 20 times the spread of the 30-year ICE swap rate minus the two-year ICE swap rate for each day that each index closes at or above its 60% reference level, up to a maximum rate of 8% per year. Interest is payable monthly and cannot be less than zero.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either index finishes below 50% barrier level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the decline of worse performing index.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
