Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Dual Directional Trigger PLUS notes linked to the iShares Silver Trust, maturing on May 5, 2027. Each note has a $1,000 denomination, pays no interest and is fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, with principal at risk.
At maturity, investors get $1,000 plus 200% of any price gain in the trust, capped at a maximum payment of $1,620 per note. If the trust falls by up to 20%, investors still receive a positive return equal to the absolute decline, up to a 20% gain. If it falls by more than 20%, repayment is reduced one-for-one with the loss in the trust and can fall to zero.
The notes will not be listed on an exchange and all payments depend on Morgan Stanley’s credit. The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $943.60 per note, reflecting dealer commissions, a $17.50 sales commission, a $5 structuring fee and hedging and issuance costs that reduce investor economics versus the $1,000 issue price.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering principal-at-risk Contingent Income Memory Buffered Securities due January 26, 2029, linked to the worst performer of the S&P 500 Index, Nasdaq-100 Index and Russell 2000 Index. Each $1,000 security pays a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 6.25% only if, on each observation date, all three indices close at or above 75% of their initial levels; missed coupons can be paid later if the barrier is again met.
At maturity, investors receive full principal only if each index is at or above its 75% buffer level. If any index finishes below this buffer, the payoff is reduced 1% for each 1% decline of the worst index beyond the 25% buffer, with a minimum payment of 25% of principal. Investors do not participate in index gains, face credit risk of Morgan Stanley and MSFL, limited liquidity because the notes are not exchange-listed, an estimated pricing-date value of about $982.50 per $1,000, and complex, uncertain tax treatment, including potential withholding for non-U.S. holders.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due January 26, 2029 linked to U.S. Bancorp common stock. Each security has a stated principal amount of $1,000 and pays a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 10.73% (about $26.825 per quarter per $1,000) only when the underlying stock is at or above 75% of the initial share price, the downside threshold.
The notes may be automatically redeemed on any of the first eleven quarterly determination dates if the stock is at or above the initial share price, paying back $1,000 plus the coupon for that period. If not redeemed early, maturity outcomes depend on the final share price: at or above the downside threshold, investors receive $1,000 plus the final coupon; below the threshold, repayment is reduced in line with the stock’s decline and can fall to zero, meaning full loss of principal.
The securities do not participate in any stock price appreciation, are unsecured obligations subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk, will not be listed on an exchange, and may have limited liquidity. The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $966.10 per $1,000 security, reflecting embedded selling, structuring and hedging costs and an internal funding rate, while agents receive $17.50 in sales commissions and a $5 structuring fee per security.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering market-linked, auto-callable securities that put your principal at risk and are tied to the worst performer of the EURO STOXX 50, Russell 2000 and Nasdaq-100 Technology Sector Index. Each security has a $1,000 face amount and may pay a contingent quarterly coupon at a rate of at least 10.25% per annum, but only when the lowest-performing index on a calculation day is at or above 75% of its starting level.
If, starting six months after issuance, all three indices are at or above their starting levels on a calculation day, the notes are automatically called and repay $1,000 plus a final contingent coupon. If they are not called and on the final calculation day any index finishes below 75% of its starting level, repayment is reduced in proportion to the worst index’s decline, so investors can lose more than 25% and up to all of their investment.
The securities are unsecured obligations of Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, carry significant market, credit, liquidity and tax risks, and have an estimated value on the pricing date of about $960 per $1,000 of face amount due to embedded costs and the issuer’s internal funding rate.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due January 26, 2029 linked to the Class A subordinate voting shares of Shopify Inc.
Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount and may pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 12.83% (about $32.075 per quarter) whenever the Shopify share price on a determination date is at least 50% of the initial share price (the downside threshold). Missed coupons may be paid later if this condition is met on a future determination date.
If on any of the first eleven determination dates the share price is at or above the initial share price, the note is automatically redeemed for the principal plus the current and any previously unpaid coupons. If not called, and the final share price is at least the downside threshold, investors receive principal plus all due coupons. If the final share price is below the threshold, repayment is reduced 1-for-1 with the stock’s decline and can be far below 50% of principal, down to zero.
The securities do not offer any upside participation in Shopify shares, are unsecured obligations subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk, will not be listed on an exchange, and may have limited liquidity. The original issue price of $1,000 includes issuance, selling, structuring and hedging costs; the estimated value on the pricing date is about $965.70 per security.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Dual Directional Trigger PLUS, 18‑month structured notes linked to the VanEck Gold Miners ETF, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. Each note has a $1,000 stated principal amount and pays no interest.
At maturity, if the ETF is above its initial price, investors receive $1,000 plus 200% of the gain, capped at a maximum payment of $1,462.60 per note. If the ETF is flat or down by up to 20%, investors get $1,000 plus the absolute value of the decline, up to a 20% positive return.
If the ETF falls more than 20% (below the 80% trigger level), investors lose 1% of principal for each 1% decline, with no protection and no minimum payment, meaning a total loss is possible. The notes will not be listed, are subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk, and have an estimated value on the pricing date of about $960.70, below the $1,000 issue price due to fees and the issuer’s internal funding rate.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering principal-at-risk Contingent Income Memory Auto-Callable Securities due January 27, 2027, linked to the worst performer of the Dow Jones Industrial Average, Nasdaq-100 Index and S&P 500 Index.
The notes pay a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 10.30% only when all three indexes close at or above their coupon barrier levels (80% of initial) on scheduled observation dates, with unpaid coupons potentially paid later if the barriers are met. Starting October 20, 2026, the notes auto-call if all indexes are at or above 100% of their initial levels, returning principal plus due and previously unpaid coupons.
If not called and any index finishes below its 80% downside threshold, repayment of principal is reduced 1% for each 1% decline of the worst index and can be zero. The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $988.10 per $1,000 note, the securities are unsecured, not listed on an exchange, and subject to issuer credit risk, market volatility, liquidity risk and uncertain U.S. tax treatment, including potential withholding for non-U.S. holders.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering contingent income auto-callable notes linked to the worst-performing of Broadcom (AVGO), Robinhood Markets (HOOD), The Home Depot (HD) and Palantir (PLTR). Each note has a $1,000 stated principal amount, with an estimated value on the pricing date of approximately $953.50 per note.
The notes pay a 9.00% per annum contingent coupon, but only if on each observation date the closing level of every stock is at or above its coupon barrier, set at 75% of its initial level. The notes are automatically redeemed if, on any quarterly redemption determination date starting January 27, 2027, each stock is at or above its call threshold level, set at 100% of its initial level, returning principal plus the applicable coupon.
If not redeemed early, investors receive the $1,000 principal at maturity on January 31, 2030, plus a final coupon only if all underliers are at or above their coupon barriers on the final observation date. Investors do not participate in any stock price appreciation and face risks including missing all coupons, issuer credit risk, limited liquidity, and an initial value below the issue price.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering $1,000 principal-at-risk structured notes linked to the worst performer of the SPDR® Gold Trust (GLD) and iShares® Silver Trust (SLV). The notes may be automatically called on February 3, 2027 for an early redemption payment of $1,455 per security if, on January 29, 2027, the closing level of each ETF is at or above 100% of its initial level.
If not called and on January 27, 2028 the final level of each underlier is above its initial level, holders receive principal plus an upside payment equal to 100% of the worst performer’s gain. If at least one underlier is at or below its initial level but both remain at or above 85% of initial, investors receive only the $1,000 principal. If either underlier finishes below 85% of initial, repayment is reduced 1% for each 1% decline of the worst performer beyond the 15% buffer, with a minimum payment at maturity of 15% of principal.
The notes pay no interest, are unsecured obligations of MSFL, are not listed on an exchange, and have an estimated value on the pricing date of approximately $965.90 per security, reflecting issuance, structuring and hedging costs.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering Trigger Performance Leveraged Upside Securities (Trigger PLUS) linked to a basket of five international equity indices: the S&P®/ASX 200, FTSE® 100, Swiss Market Index®, EURO STOXX 50® and Tokyo Stock Price Index. Each note has a $1,000 stated principal amount, pays no interest and matures on February 5, 2029.
At maturity, if the basket has risen, investors receive $1,000 plus 145.09% of the basket’s gain. If the basket is flat or down but still at or above 80% of its initial value, investors receive $1,000. If the basket closes below this 80% trigger, repayment is reduced one-for-one with the basket’s loss, and the entire principal can be lost. The notes are unsecured, subject to Morgan Stanley credit risk, not listed on any exchange, and have an estimated value of about $956.60 per $1,000 at pricing due to embedded costs and issuer funding assumptions.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is issuing Enhanced Trigger Jump Securities due January 27, 2027 linked to the common stock of Broadcom Inc. Each security has a stated principal amount and issue price of $1,000, with an aggregate principal amount of $3,825,000, and pays no interest.
At maturity, if Broadcom’s final stock level on the January 22, 2027 observation date is at or above the downside threshold of $241.479 (70% of the $344.97 initial level), investors receive $1,000 plus a fixed upside payment of $214 per security, a 21.40% return, regardless of how much the stock has risen. If the final level is below the threshold, the payoff is $1,000 multiplied by the stock’s performance factor (final level ÷ initial level), causing a 1% loss of principal for each 1% decline and potentially a total loss.
The notes are unsecured, subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk, will not be listed on any exchange and may have limited secondary liquidity. The estimated value on the pricing date is $980.30 per $1,000, reflecting issuance, selling, structuring and hedging costs and the issuer’s internal funding rate. The tax discussion indicates a treatment as prepaid financial contracts is considered reasonable but remains uncertain.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is issuing $250,000 of “Jump Securities” with an auto-call feature, at $1,000 stated principal per security, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.
The notes run to January 16, 2031 and are linked to the worst performer of the VanEck Semiconductor ETF, the Nasdaq-100 Technology Sector Index and the Russell 2000 Index. If on any determination date from January 19, 2027 onward all three underliers are at or above their call thresholds (100% of initial levels), the notes are automatically redeemed for a fixed cash amount, rising over time and corresponding to about 15.50% per annum.
If not called, at maturity investors receive $1,775 per security if all final underlier levels are at or above their call thresholds, only $1,000 if all stay at or above 60% downside thresholds, and otherwise an amount that falls 1% for every 1% decline in the worst underlier, potentially zero. The estimated value on the pricing date is $957.10 per security, below the $1,000 issue price, and investors face both market risk and Morgan Stanley credit risk, with no listing and potentially limited liquidity.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is issuing principal-at-risk Callable Contingent Income Securities maturing on January 18, 2029, in $1,000 denominations with an aggregate principal amount of $870,000. These notes pay a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 8.55%, but only when the Nasdaq-100 Technology Sector Index, the Russell 2000 Index and the S&P 500 Index are all at or above their coupon barrier levels (60% of their initial levels) on the relevant observation date.
Starting April 16, 2026, the issuer may redeem the notes on specified monthly dates if a risk-neutral valuation model indicates it is economically rational to do so, paying $1,000 plus any due coupon and ending future payments. At maturity, if any index is below its downside threshold (about 55% of its initial level), investors lose 1% of principal for each 1% decline of the worst-performing index, potentially down to zero. The estimated value on the pricing date is $983.90 per $1,000 note, the securities will not be listed on an exchange, and all payments depend on Morgan Stanley’s credit.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering $1,000,000 of S&P 500®-linked Buffered Jump Securities with an auto-call feature, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount and an original issue price of $1,000, with an estimated value on the pricing date of $979.80 per security.
The notes may be automatically redeemed on January 22, 2027 for an early redemption payment of $1,092 per $1,000 if the S&P 500 closing level on January 19, 2027 is at or above the initial level of 6,977.27. If not called, the January 18, 2028 maturity payout depends on index performance: investors receive principal plus upside if the final level is above the initial level; principal only if the final level is at or above the 10% buffer level of 6,279.543; and a proportional loss beyond the buffer, down to a minimum of 10% of principal.
The securities pay no interest, are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk, will not be listed on any exchange, and may have limited secondary market liquidity. Investors bear structural risks including early redemption at a capped return, potential significant loss of principal, model-based pricing, and uncertain U.S. federal income tax treatment.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Performance Leveraged Upside Securities (PLUS) tied to the S&P 500® Index, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, maturing on May 5, 2027. Each $1,000 note pays no interest and offers 300% leveraged upside on any index gain, but returns are capped at a maximum payment of $1,138 per PLUS, or 113.80% of principal.
If the index is flat at maturity, investors simply receive $1,000. If the index falls, repayment is reduced one-for-one with the decline, with no minimum payment, so the entire investment can be lost. The notes are unsecured, subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk, and will not be listed on an exchange, so secondary liquidity may be limited.
The issue price embeds selling, structuring and hedging costs, so the estimated value on the January 30, 2026 pricing date is approximately $969.50 per PLUS. Investors effectively pay upfront fees, including a $17.50 sales commission and a $5 structuring fee per note, while Morgan Stanley and its affiliates may hedge and trade in related instruments in ways that can affect the index level and note value.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is issuing S&P 500®-linked Buffered Jump Securities with an auto-call feature, maturing on January 15, 2032. Each security has a stated principal amount of $1,000 and an issue price of $1,000, with a total aggregate principal of $3,740,000. The securities are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley but are principal-at-risk and pay no interest.
The notes may be automatically redeemed starting January 13, 2027 if the S&P 500® closing level is at or above the call threshold of 6,977.27, providing step-up early redemption payments from $1,080 to $1,400 per security. If held to maturity and not called, investors receive $1,480 per security if the final index level is at or above the call threshold, $1,000 if it is between the buffer level of 6,279.543 and the call threshold, and a reduced amount if the index falls below the buffer, with a minimum payment of 10% of principal.
The estimated value on the pricing date is $980.60 per security, reflecting issuance, structuring and hedging costs and the issuer’s internal funding rate. The notes will not be listed on any exchange, involve significant market and credit risk, and secondary market liquidity, if any, will depend largely on Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering callable contingent income securities due January 18, 2029, linked to the worst performer of the S&P 500 Index, Nasdaq-100 Technology Sector Index and Russell 2000 Index. Each $1,000 note pays an 8.90% per annum contingent coupon only when all three indexes are at or above 70% of their initial levels on scheduled observation dates.
If the notes are not called and, at maturity, any index is below its 70% downside threshold, investors lose principal 1-for-1 with the decline of the worst-performing index, potentially losing the entire investment. The notes are callable in whole from July 16, 2026 onward if a risk-neutral valuation model indicates early redemption is economically rational for the issuer. The issue price is $1,000 per note, aggregate principal amount is $1,405,000, and the estimated value on the pricing date is $961.70 per note. The securities are unsecured, subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk, and will not be listed on any exchange.

Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount, with a total offering size of $1,000,000, and an issue price of $1,000 per security. The estimated value on the pricing date is $941.20 per security.
Investors may receive a contingent coupon at 13.85% per annum, paid on scheduled coupon dates only if the index closes at or above the coupon barrier level of 2,219.525 (70% of the initial level of 3,170.75). Missed coupons can be "remembered" and paid later if a future observation meets the barrier. The notes are auto-callable quarterly starting July 13, 2026 if the index is at or above the call threshold of 3,170.75, returning principal plus due coupons.
If not called, and on the final observation date the index is at or above the downside threshold of 1,585.375 (50% of initial), investors receive full principal plus any payable coupons. If the final level is below this threshold, repayment is reduced in line with the index decline, and the maturity payment can be significantly less than $1,000 or zero. All payments are subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley Finance LLC and Morgan Stanley.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering principal-at-risk, callable contingent income securities due February 1, 2029, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. These $1,000-denomination notes pay a 9.10% per annum contingent coupon only if, on each observation date, the Nasdaq-100® Technology Sector Index, the Russell 2000® Index and the S&P 500® Index are all at or above their coupon barrier levels set at 70% of their initial levels.
Beginning July 30, 2026, the notes are callable in whole on specified redemption dates if an internal risk-neutral valuation model indicates it is economically rational for Morgan Stanley to redeem. If not called, and at maturity all three indices are at or above their 70% downside thresholds, investors receive the full principal plus any final coupon; if any index finishes below its threshold, repayment is reduced one-for-one with the decline of the worst-performing index and can fall to zero.
The notes are unsecured obligations of MSFL, guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, carry an estimated value of approximately $958.70 per $1,000 on the pricing date, will not be listed on any exchange and may have limited secondary liquidity. Investors face issuer credit risk, the possibility of receiving few or no coupons, early redemption risk, complex U.S. tax treatment and sector and small-cap exposure through the underlying indices.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering Trigger PLUS structured notes linked to the S&P 500 Futures Excess Return Index, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount, matures on January 24, 2031, pays no interest and does not guarantee any return of principal.
At maturity, if the index is above its initial level, investors receive $1,000 plus 191% of the index gain. If the index is at or below the initial level but at or above 70% of that level, investors receive only the $1,000 principal. If the index closes below 70% of the initial level, repayment is reduced 1% for each 1% decline and can fall to zero, as shown in a scenario where an 85% drop yields just $150. The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $945.10 per security, reflecting issuance, structuring and hedging costs and the issuer’s internal funding rate.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering callable contingent income securities due July 17, 2028, with an aggregate principal amount of $2,541,000, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley.
Each $1,000 security pays a contingent coupon at 11.50% per year, but only if on each observation date the Dow Jones Industrial Average, Nasdaq-100 Technology Sector Index and Russell 2000 Index are all at or above their coupon barrier levels, set at 70% of their initial levels. If any index is below its barrier on a given observation date, no coupon is paid for that period.
Starting April 16, 2026, the notes may be called in whole on scheduled redemption dates if a risk‑neutral valuation model indicates early redemption is economically rational for the issuer. If not called and at maturity all three indexes are at or above their downside thresholds (also 70% of initial levels), investors receive full principal plus any final coupon; otherwise, repayment is reduced 1% for each 1% decline in the worst-performing index, and the maturity payment can be zero.
The notes are principal-at-risk, unsecured obligations, not listed on any exchange, and the estimated value on the pricing date is $985.50 per $1,000, below the issue price due to issuing, selling, structuring and hedging costs and the issuer’s internal funding rate.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering principal-at-risk structured notes linked to the VanEck Gold Miners ETF with an aggregate principal amount of $1,967,000 at $1,000 per security. The notes pay a contingent coupon at 7.00% per year, but only if the ETF’s closing level is at or above the coupon barrier of $62.218 (65% of the $95.72 initial level) on each observation date; missed coupons may be paid later if the barrier is met.
The securities are auto-callable quarterly starting July 13, 2026 if the ETF is at or above the call threshold of $95.72, returning principal plus due coupons. If held to December 15, 2028 and not called, investors receive full principal only if the final level is at or above the buffer level of $81.362 (85% of the initial level); below that, losses match the ETF’s decline beyond the 15% buffer, with a minimum payout of 15% of principal. The notes’ estimated value on the pricing date is $949.00 per security, below the issue price, and investors face credit risk of Morgan Stanley, limited liquidity, ETF and gold/silver mining sector volatility, and uncertain U.S. tax treatment, including potential 30% withholding on coupons for certain non-U.S. holders.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is issuing $26.643 million of Jump Securities with an auto-callable feature, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. These structured notes are linked to the worst performer among three ETFs: the State Street SPDR S&P Regional Banking ETF (KRE), the iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX) and the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (TLT).
Each $1,000 note can be automatically redeemed on scheduled determination dates if all underliers are at or above their call threshold levels, paying an early redemption amount that corresponds to a return of approximately 15.50% per annum. If held to maturity and all final ETF levels are at or above their upside thresholds, investors receive $1,155; if any is below its downside threshold (60% of its initial level), principal is reduced 1% for every 1% decline in the worst-performing ETF and can fall to zero.
The securities pay no interest, do not participate in ETF upside beyond the fixed payouts, and are unsecured obligations subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk. They are not listed on any exchange, the estimated value on the pricing date is $961 per $1,000 note, and secondary liquidity and pricing may be limited.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering Performance Leveraged Upside Securities (PLUS) linked to the Russell 2000® Index, maturing on May 5, 2027. Each PLUS has a $1,000 stated principal amount, pays no interest and offers 300% leveraged upside if the index rises, subject to a maximum payment at maturity of $1,202.50 (120.25% of principal).
If the final index value is above the initial index value, investors receive $1,000 plus 300% of the index percent increase, capped at $1,202.50. If the index is unchanged, they receive $1,000. If the index falls, the notes lose 1% of principal for every 1% index decline, with no minimum repayment, so the entire investment can be lost.
The notes are unsecured obligations subject to the credit risk of Morgan Stanley Finance LLC and Morgan Stanley and will not be listed on any exchange, so secondary trading may be limited. The estimated value on the pricing date is expected to be approximately $968.50 per PLUS, below the $1,000 issue price, reflecting issuing, selling, structuring and hedging costs and an internal funding rate favorable to the issuer.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC is offering 1.5-year Trigger Jump Securities linked to the common stock of NVIDIA Corporation, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount, pays no interest and is unsecured, with principal at risk.
At maturity, if NVIDIA’s final share price is greater than or equal to its initial share price, holders receive $1,000 plus a fixed upside payment of $396.90 per security, a 39.69% return. If the final share price is below the initial but at or above 70% of the initial share price, the payout is $1,000. If it falls below 70% of the initial level, the payout is $1,000 times the share performance factor, producing 1:1 exposure to the full decline and a potential total loss of principal.
The estimated value on the pricing date is approximately $966.50 per security, reflecting issuing, selling, structuring and hedging costs and Morgan Stanley’s internal funding rate. The securities will not be listed, secondary trading may be limited, and all payments depend on Morgan Stanley’s creditworthiness. The U.S. federal income tax treatment is uncertain and may change.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering leveraged buffered notes linked to the S&P 500® Index. These principal-at-risk securities do not pay interest and return at maturity depends solely on the index level on a single determination date about 27–30 months after pricing.
For each $1,000 note, investors receive 150% of any positive index return, but this upside is capped, with the maximum settlement amount expected between $1,233.25 and $1,274.35. If the index falls by up to 15.00%, investors receive back $1,000. If it falls by more than 15.00%, losses accelerate at a buffer rate of approximately 117.65% of the decline beyond that level, and investors could lose their entire investment.
The estimated value on the trade date is expected to be about $994.70 per $1,000 note, reflecting issuance, structuring and hedging costs and an internal funding rate that is favorable to the issuer. The notes are unsecured obligations subject to Morgan Stanley’s credit risk, will not be listed on any exchange, and secondary trading, if any, may be limited and at prices below the original issue price.
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering principal-at-risk "Jump Securities" linked to the worst performer of the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Nasdaq-100 Index. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount and does not pay interest or guarantee repayment of principal.
The notes can be automatically redeemed starting February 2027 if on a determination date both indices are at or above their call thresholds, paying early redemption amounts that correspond to a return of approximately 11.65% per annum (for example, $1,116.50, $1,233.00 or $1,349.50 per security on successive dates). If held to February 2030 and both final index levels are at or above their call thresholds, investors receive $1,466 per security.
