New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $2.97 million contingent income notes on indexes

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, April 4 - Morgan Stanley priced $2.97 million of contingent income securities due April 5, 2023 linked to the worst performing of the S&P 500 index and the Euro Stoxx 50 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The coupon will be 9% for the first three years, payable monthly. After that, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at an annualized rate of 9% for that month if each index closes at or above its 70% coupon barrier level on a monthly determination date.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the final contingent coupon unless either index finishes below its 80% downside threshold level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worst performing index.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
