New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $500,000 8.7% contingent income callables on indexes, fund

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Nov. 30 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $500,000 of contingent income callable securities due Oct. 28, 2021 linked to the worst performing of the Russell 2000 index, the S&P 500 index and the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF, according to a 424B2 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 8.7% if each underlying asset closes at or above its 70% coupon barrier on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes are callable at par on any review date after six months.

The payout at maturity will be par unless any underlying asset finishes below its 50% downside threshold, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worst performing index or fund.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
