New Issue: Morgan Stanley sells $3.45 million trigger autocallable contingent yield notes on indexes

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, May 15 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $3.45 million of trigger autocallable contingent yield notes due May 15, 2024 linked to the Russell 2000 index and the Nikkei 225 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 7.66% if each index closes at or above its coupon barrier level, 70% of its initial level, on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par if each index closes at or above its initial level on any observation date after one year.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon unless either index finishes below the 70% downside threshold level, in which case investors will lose 1% for each 1% decline of the worse performing index from its initial level.

UBS Financial Services Inc. and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC are the agents.
