New Issue: Morgan Stanley sells $1.59 million fixed-to-floaters on CMS rates, indexes

By Sarah Lizee

Olympia, Wash., Sept. 28 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $1.59 million of fixed-to-floating securities due Sept. 28, 2038 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.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

Interest will be fixed at 9% for the first two years. After that, it will accrue at 30 times the spread of the 30-year U.S. dollar ICE swap rate minus the two-year U.S. dollar ICE swap rate for each day that each index closes at or above its 60% reference level, subject to a maximum interest rate of 9%. Interest will be payable quarterly and cannot be less than zero.

The payout at maturity will be par unless any index finishes below its 60% barrier level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the worst performing index.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
