New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $500,000 contingent income autocalls on Russell, S&P ETFs

Chicago, March 29 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $500,000 of contingent income autocallable securities due Feb. 25, 2022 linked to the SPDR S&P 500 ETF trust and the iShares Russell 2000 ETF, according to a 424B2 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 9.25% if each underlying fund closes at or above its 75% coupon barrier on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par if each fund closes at or above its initial level on any review date.

The payout at maturity will be par plus any coupon due unless either underlying fund finishes below its 65% downside threshold, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worst performing fund.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
