New Issue: Morgan Stanley sells $1.5 million fixed-to-floaters on CMS rates, indexes

By Sarah Lizee

Olympia, Wash., May 25 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $1.5 million of fixed-to-floating securities due May 29, 2028 linked to the worst performing of 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 10 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 50% reference level, subject to a maximum interest rate of 10%. Interest will be payable monthly 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.
