New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $1.98 million callable contingent income notes linked to indexes

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., Jan. 15 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $1.98 million of callable contingent income buffered securities due Jan. 15, 2021 linked to the Russell 2000 index and the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

Each quarter, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at the rate of 7.4% per year if each index closes at or above its buffer level, 80% of its initial level, on the observation date for that quarter.

Beginning July 16, 2019, the notes will be callable at par on any interest payment date.

The payout at maturity will be par unless the lesser-performing index finishes below its buffer level, in which case investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the lesser-performing index declines beyond 20%.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
