New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $6.77 million contingent income autocallables on four stocks

By Devika Patel

Knoxville, Tenn., July 7 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $6.77 million of contingent income autocallable securities due June 25, 2020 linked to the least performing of the common stocks of JPMorgan Chase & Co., Wells Fargo & Co., Bank of America Corp. and Citigroup Inc., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

The notes will pay a contingent monthly coupon at an annual rate of 8.25% if the worst-performing shares close at or above the 65% downside threshold level on the observation date for that month.

The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if all stocks close at or above the initial price on any monthly observation date beginning on Dec. 27, 2017.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon unless any stock finishes below its downside threshold, in which case investors will lose 1% for each 1% decline of the worst-performing stock.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent, and Morgan Stanley Wealth Management is a distributor.
