New Issue: Morgan Stanley sells $1 million contingent income autocalls on ETFs

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, May 19 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $1 million of contingent income autocallable securities due May 2, 2024 linked to the worst performing of the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF and the VanEck Vectors Gold Miners ETF, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If each underlier closes at or above its downside threshold level, 70% of its initial level, on a quarterly determination date, the notes will pay a contingent payment that quarter at an annualized rate of 9.6%.

The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if each underlier closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly determination date after six months.

If each underlier finishes at or above its downside threshold level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final contingent coupon. Otherwise, investors will have full exposure to the performance of the least-performing underlier.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent.
