New Issue: Morgan Stanley sells $10.29 million fixed-to-floaters on CMS rate, indexes

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, March 2 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $10.29 million of fixed-to-floating securities due Feb. 28, 2038 linked to the worst performing of the Euro Stoxx 50 index, 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.

Interest will be fixed at 10% for the first year. After that, it will accrue at 20 times the spread of the 30-year U.S. dollar ICE swap rate minus the two-year U.S. dollar ICE swap rate for each day that each index closes at or above its 60% reference level, subject to a maximum interest rate of 10%. Interest will be payable quarterly and cannot be less than zero.

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

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
