New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $7.7 million trigger callable contingent yield notes on S&P, Russell, Stoxx

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Jan. 4 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $7.7 million of trigger callable contingent yield notes with daily coupon observation due Dec. 31, 2020 linked to the least performing of the Euro Stoxx 50 index, the Russell 2000 index and the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 9.3% if each index’s closing level remains at or above its coupon barrier, 70% of its initial level, on each day during that quarter.

Beginning June 29, 2018, the notes will be callable at par of $10 on each quarterly observation date other than the final one.

If the notes are not called and each index finishes at or above its downside threshold level, 70% of its initial level, the payout at maturity will be par. Otherwise, investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the least-performing index’s final level is below its initial level.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

Morgan Stanley and UBS Financial Services Inc. are the agents.
