New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $560,000 6.35% fixed, contingent income callables on indexes

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Sept. 27 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $560,000 of contingent income callable securities due Sept. 26, 2022 linked to the worse performing of the Russell 2000 index and the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest will be fixed at 6.35% for the first two years, payable semiannually. After that, the notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annualized rate of 6.35% if each index closes at or above its 70% coupon barrier on the observation date for that period.

The notes are callable at par on any review date after two years.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either underlying index finishes below its 70% downside threshold, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worse performing index.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
