New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $2 million buffered securities on S&P, Russell

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Jan. 12 – Morgan Stanley priced $2 million of 0% buffered securities due Oct. 2, 2020 based on the worse performing of the S&P 500 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If the final level of each index is greater than or equal to its threshold value, 96% of its initial level, the payout at maturity will be par of $10 plus the upside payment of $4.95.

If the final level of either index is less than 96% of its initial level but the final level of neither index is less than 80% of its initial level, the payout will be par plus 0.309375% for every 1% that the lesser-performing index’s final level exceeds 80% of its initial level.

If the final level of either index is below 80% of its initial level, investors will lose 1.25% for every 1% the worse performing index declines beyond 80% of its initial level.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
