New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $1.17 million contingent income autocallables tied to funds

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, July 3 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $1.17 million of contingent income autocallable securities due July 6, 2020 linked to the worse performing of the VanEck Vectors Gold Miners exchange-traded fund and the SPDR S&P Regional Banking exchange-traded fund, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 7% if each fund closes above its downside threshold, 53.85% of the initial level, on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be redeemed at par plus the coupon if each fund closes above its initial level on any quarterly redemption date beginning Jan. 6, 2018.

The payout at maturity will be par plus any contingent coupon unless either fund closes below its 53.85% threshold, in which cases investors will be fully exposed to the losses of the worse performing fund.

The notes will be guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
