Morgan Stanley Finance LLC, fully guaranteed by Morgan Stanley, is offering principal-at-risk Callable Contingent Income Securities due April 29, 2027, linked to the worst performer of the S&P 500 Index, Nasdaq-100 Technology Sector Index, and Russell 2000 Index. The notes are issued at $1,000 per security and pay a contingent coupon at 11.70% per annum only if each index closes at or above its coupon barrier on the observation date.
The issuer may redeem the notes on specified redemption dates, starting January 29, 2026, if a risk-neutral valuation model indicates early call is economically rational for the issuer; if called, investors receive the stated principal plus any due coupon.
