New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $3.2 million buffered notes linked to S&P, Russell

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., Oct. 9 – Morgan Stanley priced $3.2 million of 0% buffered securities due March 31, 2020 linked to the worst performing of the S&P 500 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If each index finishes at or above its initial level, the payout at maturity will be par of $10 plus 42.702%.

If either index finishes below its initial level but each index’s final level is at least 80% of its initial level, the payout will be par plus 2.1351% for every 1% by which the final level of the worst-performing index exceeds 80% of its initial level.

If the final level of either index is less than 80% of its initial level, investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the worst-performing index declines beyond 20%.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
