New Issue: Morgan Stanley sells $500,000 jump autocalls on Dow, Russell

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Jan. 31 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $500,000 of 0% jump securities with autocallable feature due Feb. 2, 2022 linked to the lesser performing of the Dow Jones industrial average and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will be called at par plus an annual call premium of 9% if each index closes at or above 95% of its initial level on any semiannual determination date.

If each index finishes at or above 95% of its initial level, the payout at maturity will be $1,270 per $1,000 principal amount.

If either index finishes below 95% of its initial level but neither falls by more than 35%, the payout will be par.

Otherwise, 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.
