New Issue: Morgan Stanley prices $4.88 million contingent income autocallables tied to Russell

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Oct. 31 - Morgan Stanley priced $4.88 million of contingent income autocallable securities due Oct. 30, 2020 linked to the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a monthly coupon at an annualized rate of 9%, if the index closes at or above the barrier level on a monthly determination date.

If the index closes at or above the initial level on any quarterly call date after four years, the notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon.

If the notes are not called, investors will receive par plus the final contingent coupon if the index finishes at or above 530 barrier level and will be fully exposed to any losses if the index finishes below the barrier level.
