Dual
Directional Trigger PLUS Based
on the Performance of the S&P 500®
Index due June 25,

Trigger Performance Leveraged

Fully and Unconditionally
Guaranteed by Morgan Stanley
Principal at Risk
Securities
The Dual Directional Trigger PLUS, or
“Trigger PLUS,” are unsecured obligations of Morgan
Stanley Finance LLC (“MSFL”) and are fully and
unconditionally guaranteed by Morgan Stanley. The Trigger PLUS will
pay no interest, do not guarantee any return of principal at
maturity and have the terms described in the accompanying product
supplement for PLUS, index supplement and prospectus, as
supplemented or modified by this document. At maturity, if the
S&P 500®
Index,
which we refer to as the underlying index,
has
appreciated
in value, investors will receive the
stated principal amount of their investment plus leveraged upside
performance of the underlying index. If the underlying index
has
depreciated
in value but by no more than 30%,
investors will receive the stated principal amount of their
investment plus an unleveraged positive return equal to the
absolute value of the percentage decline, which will effectively be
limited to a positive 30% return. However, if the underlying index
has
depreciated
in value by more than 30%, investors will
be negatively exposed to the full amount of the percentage decline
in the underlying index and will lose 1% of the stated principal
amount for every 1% of decline, without any buffer. The Trigger
PLUS are for investors who seek an equity index-based return and
who are willing to risk their principal and forgo current income in
exchange for the upside leverage and absolute return features that
in each case apply to a limited range of performance of the
underlying index.
Investors may lose their
entire initial investment in the Trigger PLUS.
These long-dated Trigger PLUS are notes
issued as part of MSFL’s Series A Global Medium-Term Notes
program.
The Trigger PLUS differ from the PLUS
described in the accompanying product supplement for PLUS in that
the Trigger PLUS offer the potential for a positive return at
maturity if the underlying index depreciates by up to 30%. The
Trigger PLUS are not the Buffered PLUS described in the
accompanying product supplement for PLUS. Unlike the Buffered PLUS,
the Trigger PLUS do not provide any protection if the underlying
index depreciates by more than 30%.
All payments are subject to
our credit risk. If we default on our obligations, you could lose
some or all of your investment. These Trigger PLUS 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.
