SUMMARY TERMS
|
|
Issuer:
|
Morgan Stanley Finance LLC (“MSFL”)
|
|
Guarantor:
|
Morgan Stanley
|
|
Underlying index:
|
Russell 2000
®
Index (the “RTY Index”). For more information about the underlying index, see the accompanying preliminary terms.
|
|
Stated principal amount:
|
$1,000 per security
|
|
Pricing date:
|
June 25, 2019
|
|
Original issue date:
|
June 28, 2019 (3 business days after the pricing date)
|
|
Maturity date:
|
June 28, 2024
|
|
Contingent early redemption:
|
Beginning on June 30, 2020, an early redemption, in whole but not in part, will occur on a monthly redemption date if the output from a risk neutral valuation model based on (i) the performance of the underlying indices, (ii) the forward level of the underlying indices, (iii) the volatility of the underlying indices and (iv) the level of interest rates, and based on our credit spreads as of the original issue date, indicates that redeeming on such date is more to our economic advantage than not redeeming on such date. If we decide to redeem the securities, we will give you notice at least 3 business days before the redemption date specified in the notice. No further payments will be made on the securities once they have been redeemed.
|
|
Redemption payment:
|
The redemption payment will be an amount equal to (i) the stated principal amount
plus
(ii) any accrued and unpaid contingent monthly coupon otherwise due with respect to the related coupon payment period.
|
|
Redemption dates:
|
Beginning on June 30, 2020, monthly. See “Coupon Observation Period End-Dates, Contingent Coupon Payment Dates and Redemption Dates” in the accompanying preliminary terms. If any such day is not a business day, that redemption payment, if payable, will be made on the next succeeding business day and no adjustment will be made to any redemption payment made on that succeeding business day.
|
|
Contingent monthly coupon:
|
Unless the securities are previously redeemed, the contingent
monthly coupon payable on the securities will be determined as follows:
At a rate of 5.70% per annum
times
N/ACT
where:
·
“N”
= the total number of index business days in the applicable coupon payment period on which the index closing value is greater than
or equal to the barrier level (each such day, an “accrual day”); and
·
“ACT”
= the total number of index business days in the applicable coupon payment period.
If, on any index business day, the index closing value is
below the barrier level, no coupon will accrue for that day. It is possible that you will receive no contingent coupon on the securities
for extended periods of time if the index closing value were to remain below the barrier level.
|
|
Payment at maturity:
|
If the securities have not previously been redeemed, investors
will receive on the maturity date a payment at maturity determined as follows:
·
If
the final index value is
greater than or equal to
the barrier level:
the stated principal amount and any accrued and unpaid contingent
monthly coupon with respect to the final coupon payment period
·
If
the final index value is
less than
the barrier level:
(i) $1,000 x (index performance factor + buffer amount)
plus
(ii) any accrued and unpaid contingent monthly coupon with respect to the final coupon payment period
|
|
Buffer amount:
|
15%
|
|
Minimum payment at maturity:
|
$150 per security
|
|
Barrier level:
|
85% of the initial index value
|
|
Agent:
|
Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, an affiliate of MSFL and a wholly owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley. See “Supplemental information regarding plan of distribution; conflicts of interest” in the accompanying preliminary terms. The agent commissions will be as set forth in the final pricing supplement.
|
|
Estimated value on the pricing date:
|
Approximately $945.40 per security, or within $30.00 of that estimate. See “Investment Summary” in the accompanying preliminary terms.
|
|

Overview
The securities offered are unsecured obligations
of MSFL and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. The securities have the terms described in the accompanying
preliminary terms, prospectus supplement, index supplement and prospectus. Unlike ordinary debt securities, the Callable Buffered
Range Accrual Securities due June 28, 2024, All Payments on the Securities Subject to the Barrier Feature Linked to the Russell
2000
®
Index, which we refer to as the securities, do not provide for the regular payment of interest and provide
for the minimum return of only 15% of the stated principal amount at maturity. The securities offer the opportunity for investors
to earn a contingent monthly coupon, if any, based on the number of index business days in the relevant coupon payment period on
which the index closing value of the Russell 2000
®
Index is greater than or equal to 85% of the initial index value,
which we refer to as the barrier level. If the index closing value remains below the barrier level for extended periods of time,
investors will receive reduced contingent monthly coupon payments or no contingent monthly coupon payments at all. As a result,
investors must be willing to accept the risk of not receiving any contingent monthly coupon during the entire 5-year term of the
securities. In addition, beginning on June 30, 2020,
we will redeem the securities on any monthly redemption date
when the
output of a risk neutral valuation model, based on the inputs indicated in the contingent early redemption terms, indicates that
redeeming on such date is more to our economic advantage than not redeeming on such date. Any redemption payment will be equal
to the sum of the stated principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid contingent monthly coupon otherwise due with respect to the
related coupon payment period. An early redemption of the securities will not automatically occur based solely on the performance
of the underlying index. At maturity, if the securities have not previously been redeemed and the final index value is greater
than or equal to the barrier level, investors will receive the stated principal amount of the securities and any accrued and unpaid
contingent monthly coupon with respect to the final coupon payment period. However, if the final index value is less than the barrier
level, investors will lose 1% for every 1% decline in the final index value from the initial index value beyond the buffer amount
of 15%, in addition to any accrued and unpaid contingent monthly coupon.
Accordingly, investors may lose up to 85% of their
entire initial investment in the securities.
Investors will not participate in any appreciation of the Russell 2000
®
Index. These long-dated securities are for investors who seek an opportunity to earn interest at a potentially above-market rate
in exchange for the risk of losing some or a substantial portion of their principal and the risk of receiving reduced contingent
monthly coupon payments, or no contingent monthly coupon payments at all, if the Russell 2000
®
Index remains below
the barrier level for extended periods of time, and the risk of an early redemption of the securities at our discretion. The securities
are unsecured obligations of Morgan Stanley Finance LLC (“MSFL”) and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan
Stanley. The securities are issued as part of MSFL’s Series A Global Medium-Term Notes program.
If we default on our obligations, you
could lose some or a substantial portion of your investment. These securities are not secured obligations and you will not have
any security interest in, or otherwise have any access to, any underlying reference asset or assets.
Investing in the securities involves risks. See “Selected
Risks” on the following page and “Risk Factors” in the accompanying preliminary terms.
You should read this document together with the accompanying
preliminary terms, prospectus supplement, index supplement and prospectus describing the offering before you decide to invest.

Monthly. For each contingent coupon payment date, the coupon payment period will be the period from but excluding the pricing date (in the case of the first coupon payment period) or the prior coupon observation period end-date to and including the following coupon observation period end-date;
provided
that the final coupon payment period will end on (and include) the final observation date. See “Coupon Observation Period End-Dates, Contingent Coupon Payment Dates and Redemption Dates” in the accompanying preliminary terms.
|
Final observation date:
|
June 25, 2024, subject to postponement as set forth under “Additional Information About the Securities – Postponement of the final observation date” in the accompanying preliminary terms.
|
Contingent coupon payment dates:
|
Monthly, as set forth under “Coupon Observation Period End-Dates, Contingent Coupon Payment Dates and Redemption Dates” in the accompanying preliminary terms. If any such day is not a business day, that coupon payment will be made on the next succeeding business day and no adjustment will be made to any coupon payment made on that succeeding business day. The contingent monthly coupon, if any, with respect to the final observation date shall be paid on the maturity date.

divided by
the initial index value.

The issuer has filed a registration statement (including a prospectus)
with the SEC for the offering to which this communication relates. Before you invest, you should read the prospectus in that
registration statement and other documents the issuer has filed with the SEC for more complete information about the issuer and
this offering. You may get these documents for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC Web site at www.sec.gov. Alternatively,
the issuer, any underwriter or any dealer participating in the offering will arrange to send you the prospectus if you request
it by calling toll-free 1-800-584-6837.
Risk Considerations
The risks set forth below are discussed in more detail in the
“Risk Factors” section in the accompanying preliminary terms. Please review those risk factors carefully prior to making
an investment decision.
|
·
|
The securities provide a minimum payment at
maturity of only 15% of your principal.
|
|
·
|
You will receive reduced contingent monthly
coupon payments, or no contingent monthly coupon payments at all, if the index closing value remains below the barrier level for
extended periods of time.
|
|
·
|
The securities are subject to our redemption
right.
|
|
·
|
Investors will not participate in any appreciation
in the value of the underlying index.
|
|
·
|
If there are no accrual days in any coupon
payment period, we will not pay any contingent monthly coupon on the securities for that coupon payment period and the market value
of the securities may decrease significantly.
|
|
·
|
The market price will be influenced by many
unpredictable factors.
|
|
·
|
The securities are linked to the Russell 2000
®
Index and are subject to risks associated with small-capitalization companies.
|
|
·
|
The securities are subject to our credit risk,
and any actual or anticipated changes to our credit ratings or credit spreads may adversely affect the market value of the securities.
|
|
·
|
As a finance subsidiary, MSFL has no independent
operations and will have no independent assets.
|
|
·
|
Not equivalent to investing in the underlying
index.
|
|
·
|
The securities will not be listed on any securities
exchange and secondary trading may be limited. Accordingly, you should be willing to hold your securities for the entire 5-year
term of the securities.
|
|
·
|
The rate we are willing to pay for securities
of this type, maturity and issuance size is likely to be lower than the rate implied by our secondary market credit spreads and
advantageous to us. Both the lower rate and the inclusion of costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging the
securities in the original issue price reduce the economic terms of the securities, cause the estimated value of the securities
to be less than the original issue price and will adversely affect secondary market prices.
|
|
·
|
The estimated value of the securities is determined
by reference to our pricing and valuation models, which may differ from those of other dealers and is not a maximum or minimum
secondary market price.
|
|
·
|
Hedging and trading activity by our affiliates
could potentially affect the value of the securities.
|
|
·
|
The calculation agent, which is a subsidiary
of Morgan Stanley and an affiliate of MSFL, will make determinations with respect to the securities.
|
|
·
|
Adjustments to the underlying index could
adversely affect the value of the securities.
|
|
·
|
The U.S. federal income tax consequences of
an investment in the securities are uncertain.
|
Tax Considerations
You should review carefully the discussion in the accompanying
preliminary terms under the caption “Additional Information About the Securities– Tax considerations” concerning
the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities. However, you should consult your tax adviser regarding
all aspects of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities, as well as any tax consequences arising
under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.
Hypothetical Examples
The following hypothetical examples are for illustrative purposes
only. Whether you receive a contingent monthly coupon will be determined based on the total number of index business days in each
monthly coupon payment period on which the index closing value is greater than or equal to the barrier level. For illustrative
purposes, the table below assumes that the coupon payment period contains 22 index business days. The actual contingent monthly
coupons will depend on the actual number of index business days in each coupon payment period and the actual index closing value
on each index business day in such coupon payment period. The actual initial index value and barrier level will be determined on
the pricing date. All payments on the securities are subject to our credit risk. The numbers in the hypothetical examples may be
rounded for ease of analysis. The below examples are based on the following terms:
Hypothetical Initial Index Value:
|
1,500
|
Hypothetical Barrier Level:
|
1,275, which is 85% of the hypothetical initial index value
|
Hypothetical Contingent Monthly Coupon Payable on the Securities:
5.70% per annum times N/ACT
|
N
|
Hypothetical Contingent Monthly Coupon
|
0
|
[(0/22) x (5.70% x $1,000)] / 12 = $0.000 per security
|
3
|
[(3/22) x (5.70% x $1,000)] / 12 = $0.648 per security
|
6
|
[(6/22) x (5.70% x $1,000)] / 12 = $1.295 per security
|
11
|
[(11/22) x (5.70% x $1,000)] / 12 = $2.375 per security
|
14
|
[(14/22) x (5.70% x $1,000)] / 12 = $3.023 per security
|
18
|
[(18/22) x (5.70% x $1,000)] / 12 = $3.886 per security
|
22
|
[(22/22) x (5.70% x $1,000)] / 12 = $4.750 per security
|
If the index closing value is less than the
barrier level on any index business day, no contingent monthly coupon will accrue for that index business day. If the index closing
value remains below the barrier level on each index business day in any coupon payment period, you will receive no contingent monthly
coupon payment for that coupon payment period.
Contingent Early Redemption:
|
The securities may be redeemed by us on any monthly redemption date for a redemption payment equal to the stated principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid contingent monthly coupon otherwise due with respect to the related coupon payment period.
|
How to calculate the payment
at maturity:
Payment at Maturity (if the securities have not been redeemed early):
|
If the final index value is
greater than or equal to
the
barrier level:
the stated principal amount and any accrued and unpaid contingent
monthly coupon with respect to the final coupon payment period
If the final index value is
less than
the barrier
level:
(i) $1,000 x (index performance factor + buffer amount)
plus
(ii) any accrued and unpaid contingent monthly coupon with respect to the final coupon payment period
|
The following examples assume that we do
not exercise our right to redeem the securities based on the output of a risk neutral valuation model prior to maturity.
Example 1—
The securities are not
redeemed prior to maturity. The final index value is 1,700, which is at or above the barrier level. In this scenario, you receive
a payment at maturity per security equal to the stated principal amount, in addition to any accrued and unpaid contingent monthly
coupon payment for the final coupon payment period. However, you do not participate in the appreciation in the value of the underlying
index.
Example 2—
The securities are not
redeemed prior to maturity. The final index value is 1,350, which is at or above the barrier level. In this scenario, you receive
a payment at maturity per security equal to the stated principal amount, in addition to any accrued and unpaid contingent monthly
coupon payment for the final coupon payment period.
Example 3
—The securities are not
redeemed prior to maturity. The final index value is 600, which is below the barrier level. Therefore, in addition to any accrued
and unpaid contingent monthly coupon payment, the payment at maturity per security would be calculated as $1,000 × [(600
/ 1,500) + 15%] = $550.00, representing a significant loss on the initial investment.
If we do not redeem the securities prior
to maturity and the final index value is less than the barrier level, you will lose some or a substantial portion of your investment
in the securities.
