New Issue: Morgan Stanley sells $10 million contingent income buffered autocalls on Invesco QQQ trust

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, May 18 – Morgan Stanley Finance LLC priced $10 million of contingent income buffered autocallable securities due May 18, 2022 linked to the Invesco QQQ trust, series 1, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes are guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.

Each month, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at the rate of 14% per year if the underlier closes at or above its coupon barrier level, 90% of its initial level, on the determination date for that month.

The notes will be automatically called at par plus the coupon if the underlier closes at or above its initial level on any monthly determination date.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the coupon unless the underlier finishes below its buffer level, 90% of its initial level, in which case investors will lose 1.1111% for every 1% that the underlier declines beyond 10%.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is the agent with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA as placement agents.
