The notes are unsecured obligations of Morgan Stanley Finance LLC ("MSFL") and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by
Morgan Stanley. The notes will pay no interest and will have the terms described in the accompanying product supplement and
prospectus, as supplemented and modified by this document. The notes will be automatically redeemed if the index closing value
on any annual determination date is greater than or equal to the then-applicable redemption threshold level (which will increase
over the term of the notes), for an early redemption payment that will increase over the term of the notes and that will correspond
to a return of approximately 6.00% per annum, as described below. No further payments will be made on the notes once they
have been redeemed, and the investor will not participate in any appreciation of the underlying index if the notes are redeemed
early. At maturity, if the notes have not previously been redeemed and the final index value is greater than the initial index value,
investors will receive the state principal amount plus 1-to-1 upside performance of the underlying index. However, if the notes are
not automatically redeemed prior to maturity and the final index value is less than or equal to the initial index value, investors will
receive only the stated principal amount of their investment, without any positive return on the notes.
The Morgan Stanley MAP Trend Index (the "underlying index") was established by Morgan Stanley on March 7, 2017 and employs
a rules-based quantitative strategy (the "Index Methodology") that combines a risk-weighted approach to portfolio construction with
a momentum-based, or trend-following, asset allocation methodology to construct a notional portfolio. In addition, the strategy
imposes an overall volatility-targeting feature upon the resulting portfolio. The goal of the underlying index is to seek positive return
opportunities in different market environments based upon recent trends in the underlying assets. The investment assumption
underlying the allocation strategy is two-fold: that historical volatility of the underlying assets can be used to risk-weight a portfolio,
and that past trends are likely to continue to be a good indicator of the future performance of that portfolio
The components of the underlying index consist of (i) 20 U.S.-listed exchange traded funds ("ETFs"), representing U.S. and non-
U.S. equities, fixed income securities, commodities and real estate, and (ii) the Morgan Stanley Two Year Treasury Index
(collectively, the "Index Components"). The notional portfolio constructed by the Index Methodology of Index Components is
referred to as the "Asset Portfolio." The Asset Portfolio will consist of long-only positions in each Index Component, and each
Index Component except for the Morgan Stanley Two Year Treasury Index is subject to a maximum exposure cap. The targeted
volatility for the underlying index is 5% (the "Volatility Target").
The underlying index is rebalanced each Strategy Business Day (the "Daily Rebalancing"). Upon each Daily Rebalancing for the
underlying index, the Index Methodology uses the pre-assigned Risk Budget assigned to each ETF (as set forth under "Annex A ­
Morgan Stanley MAP Trend Index ­ Index Components") and the volatility for each ETF to make initial base allocations. The Index
Methodology then calculates a signal based on the upward or downward trend of each ETF (the "Trend Signal"). The index
calculates each Trend Signal by observing two moving averages, one short-term and one long-term, over different look-back
periods for each respective ETF. A Trend Signal that converges toward one indicates an upward trend and a Trend Signal that
converges toward zero indicates a downward trend. Once the Trend Signal is calculated for each ETF, the previously determined
base allocations are scaled by the Trend Signal by allocating more upward-trending securities to the Asset Portfolio. The
magnitude of each position taken by the underlying index following the Trend Signal adjustment is then scaled to the Volatility
Target based on a pro-rata volatility-scaling that seeks to achieve a balanced level of volatility in the underlying index's exposure to
each of the ETFs.
The underlying index is calculated on an excess return basis, and therefore the level reflects the weighted return of the Asset
Portfolio reduced by the return on an equivalent cash investment receiving the 3-month LIBOR. The underlying index performance
is further reduced by a servicing cost of 0.85% per annum calculated on a daily basis. For more information, see "Annex A--
Morgan Stanley MAP Trend Index" beginning on page 28 and the "Risk Factors" beginning on page 10.
These long-dated notes are for investors who are concerned about principal risk but seek exposure to a multiple asset-linked
index, who are willing to accept that the underlying index's Volatility Target feature may reduce upside performance in bullish
markets, and who are willing to forgo current income in exchange for the possibility of receiving an early redemption payment or
payment at maturity greater than the stated principal amount if the underlying index closes at or above the applicable redemption
threshold level or above the initial index value, as applicable, on an annual determination date. The notes are notes issued as part
of MSFL's Series A Global Medium-Term Notes program.

The Morgan Stanley MAP Trend Index has been developed by and is calculated, published and maintained by Morgan Stanley &
Co. LLC. MAP stands for "Multi-Asset Portfolio." The underlying index employs a rules-based quantitative strategy that combines
a risk-weighted approach to portfolio construction with a momentum-based, or trend-following, asset allocation methodology to
construct a notional portfolio. In addition, the strategy imposes an overall volatility-targeting feature upon the resulting portfolio.

The goal of the underlying index is to maximize returns for a given level of risk based upon recent trends in the underlying
assets. The investment assumption underlying the allocation strategy is two-fold: that historical volatility of the underlying assets
can be used to risk-weight a portfolio, and that past trends are likely to continue to be a good indicator of the future performance of
that portfolio.

The components of the underlying index consist of (i) 20 U.S.-listed exchange traded funds ("ETFs"), representing U.S. and non-
U.S. equities, fixed income securities, commodities and real estate, and (ii) the Morgan Stanley Two Year Treasury Index. The
notional portfolio constructed by the Index Methodology of Index Components is referred to as the Asset Portfolio. The Asset
Portfolio will consist of long-only positions in each Index Component, and each Index Component except for the Morgan Stanley
Two Year Treasury Index is subject to a maximum exposure cap. The targeted volatility for the Index is 5%.

The underlying index is calculated on an excess return basis, and therefore the level is determined by the weighted return of the
Asset Portfolio reduced by the return on an equivalent cash investment receiving the 3-month LIBOR. The underlying index
performance is further reduced by a servicing cost of 0.85% per annum calculated on a daily basis.

The underlying index is rebalanced each Strategy Business Day. Upon each Daily Rebalancing for the underlying index, the Index
Methodology uses the pre-assigned Risk Budget assigned to each ETF and the volatility for each ETF to make initial base
allocations. The Index Methodology then calculates a signal based on the upward or downward trend of each ETF. The underlying
index calculates each Trend Signal by observing two moving averages, one short-term and one long-term, over different look-back
periods for each respective ETF. A Trend Signal that converges toward one indicates an upward trend and a Trend Signal that
converges toward zero indicates a downward trend. Once the Trend Signal is calculated for each ETF, the previously determined
base allocations are scaled by the Trend Signal by allocating more upward-trending securities to the Asset Portfolio. The
magnitude of each position taken by the underlying index following the Trend Signal adjustment is then scaled to the Volatility
Target based on a pro-rata volatility-scaling that seeks to achieve a balanced level of volatility in the underlying index's exposure to
each of the ETFs. Once the composition of the Asset Portfolio is determined, the index value is equivalent to the sum of each
Index Component's market price less the 3-month LIBOR excess return cost and the 0.85% per annum servicing cost.

The original issue price of each note is $1,000. This price includes costs associated with issuing, selling, structuring and hedging
the notes, which are borne by you, and, consequently, the estimated value of the notes on the pricing date will be less than
$1,000. We estimate that the value of each note on the pricing date will be approximately $935.50, or within $30.00 of that
estimate. Our estimate of the value of the notes as determined on the pricing date will be set forth in the final pricing supplement.

What goes into the estimated value on the pricing date?

In valuing the notes on the pricing date, we take into account that the notes comprise both a debt component and a performance-
based component linked to the underlying index. The estimated value of the notes is determined using our own pricing and
valuation models, market inputs and assumptions relating to the underlying index, instruments based on the underlying index,
volatility and other factors including current and expected interest rates, as well as an interest rate related to our secondary market
credit spread, which is the implied interest rate at which our conventional fixed rate debt trades in the secondary market.

What determines the economic terms of the notes?

In determining the economic terms of the notes, including the early redemption payment amounts and the applicable redemption
threshold levels, we use an internal funding rate, which is likely to be lower than our secondary market credit spreads and therefore
advantageous to us. If the issuing, selling, structuring and hedging costs borne by you were lower or if the internal funding rate
were higher, one or more of the economic terms of the notes would be more favorable to you.

What is the relationship between the estimated value on the pricing date and the secondary market price of the notes?
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/895421/000095010318006268/dp91099_424b2-ps617.htm[5/18/2018 1:41:36 PM]



The price at which MS & Co. purchases the notes in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those
related to the underlying index, may vary from, and be lower than, the estimated value on the pricing date, because the secondary
market price takes into account our secondary market credit spread as well as the bid-offer spread that MS & Co. would charge in
a secondary market transaction of this type and other factors. However, because the costs associated with issuing, selling,
structuring and hedging the notes are not fully deducted upon issuance, for a period of up to 12 months following the issue date, to
the extent that MS & Co. may buy or sell the notes in the secondary market, absent changes in market conditions, including those
related to the underlying index, and to our secondary market credit spreads, it would do so based on values higher than the
estimated value. We expect that those higher values will also be reflected in your brokerage account statements.

MS & Co. may, but is not obligated to, make a market in the notes, and, if it once chooses to make a market, may cease doing so
at any time.

Jump Notes with Auto-Callable Feature offer investors potential returns based on the performance of the underlying index and
provide for the repayment of principal at maturity. They are for investors who are concerned about principal risk but seek exposure
to a multiple asset-linked index, who are willing to accept that the underlying index's volatility target feature may reduce upside
performance in bullish markets, and who are willing to forgo current income in exchange for the possibility of receiving an early
redemption payment or payment at maturity greater than the stated principal amount if the underlying index closes at or above the
applicable redemption threshold level or above the initial index value, as applicable, on an annual determination date.

The following scenarios are for illustrative purposes only to demonstrate how an automatic early redemption payment or the
payment at maturity (if the notes have not previously been redeemed) are calculated, and do not attempt to demonstrate every
situation that may occur.

Sc e na rio 1 : T he not e s a re
Starting on May 29, 2019, when the underlying index closes at or above the applicable
re de e m e d prior t o
redemption threshold level on any annual determination date, the notes will be automatically
m a t urit y
redeemed for the applicable early redemption payment on the related early redemption date,
corresponding to a return of approximately 6.00% per annum. Investors do not participate in
any appreciation of the underlying index.
Sc e na rio 2 : T he not e s a re
This scenario assumes that the underlying index closes below the applicable redemption
not re de e m e d prior t o
threshold level on each annual determination date. Consequently, the notes are not
m a t urit y, a nd inve st ors
redeemed prior to maturity. On the final determination date, the underlying index closes
re c e ive a posit ive re t urn
above the initial index value. At maturity, investors will receive the state principal amount
a t m a t urit y
plus 1-to-1 upside performance of the underlying index.
Sc e na rio 3 : T he not e s a re
This scenario assumes that the underlying index closes below the applicable redemption
not re de e m e d prior t o
threshold level on each annual determination date. Consequently, the notes are not
m a t urit y, a nd inve st ors
redeemed prior to maturity. On the final determination date, the underlying index closes at
re c e ive t he st a t e d
or below the initial index value. At maturity, investors will receive a cash payment equal to
princ ipa l a m ount a t
the stated principal amount of $1,000, without any positive return on the notes.

Hypothetical Examples

The following hypothetical examples are for illustrative purposes only. Whether the notes are redeemed prior to maturity will be
determined by reference to the index closing value of the underlying index on each annual determination date, and the payment at
maturity, if the notes are not redeemed early, will be determined by reference to the index closing value on the final determination
date. The actual initial index value and redemption threshold levels will be determined on the pricing date. Some numbers
appearing in the examples below have been rounded for ease of analysis. All payments on the notes are subject to our credit
risk. The below examples are based on the following terms:

In this example, the index closing value on the first determination date is below the applicable redemption threshold level, and the
index closing value on the second determination date is at or above the applicable redemption threshold level. Therefore the notes
are automatically redeemed on the second early redemption date. Investors will receive $1,120 per note on the related early
redemption date, corresponding to an annual return of approximately 6.00%. No further payments will be made on the notes once
they have been redeemed, and investors do not participate in the appreciation of the underlying index.

In the following examples, the index closing value on each annual determination date is less than the applicable redemption
threshold level, and, consequently, the notes are not automatically redeemed prior to, and remain outstanding until, maturity.

Payment at maturity = $1,200

In this example, the index closing value is below the applicable redemption threshold level on each of the determination dates
before the final determination date, and therefore the notes are not redeemed prior to maturity. On the final determination date, the
underlying index has appreciated 20% from the hypothetical initial index value. At maturity, investors receive the stated principal
amount plus the product of the stated principal amount times the index percent change. Because the underlying index has
appreciated 20% from the hypothetical index value, the payment at maturity is $1,200 per note.

final index value is at or below the initial index value, and accordingly, investors receive a payment at maturity equal to the stated
principal amount of $1,000 per note, without any positive return on the notes.

Risk Factors

The following is a non-exhaustive list of certain key risk factors for investors in the notes. For further discussion of these and other
risks you should read the section entitled "Risk Factors" in the accompanying product supplement and the accompanying
prospectus. You should also consult with your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers in connection with your
investment in the notes.

The notes do not pay interest and may not pay more than the stated principal amount at maturity. If
the notes are not redeemed prior to maturity and the index percent change is less than or equal to 0%, you will receive
only the stated principal amount of $1,000 for each note you hold at maturity. As the notes do not pay any interest, if the
notes have not been automatically redeemed prior to maturity and the underlying index does not appreciate sufficiently
over the term of the notes, the overall return on the notes (the effective yield to maturity) may be less than the amount that
would be paid on a conventional debt security of ours of comparable maturity. The notes have been designed for investors
who are willing to forgo market floating interest rates in exchange for the possibility of receiving an early redemption
payment or payment at maturity greater than the stated principal amount, based on the performance of the underlying
index.

If the notes are automatically redeemed prior to maturity, the appreciation potential of the notes is

potential of the notes is limited to the fixed early redemption payment specified for each such determination date. No
further payments will be made on the notes once they have been redeemed, and you will not participate in any

appreciation of the underlying index if the notes are redeemed early.

The automatic early redemption feature may limit the term of your investment to as short as
a pprox im a t e ly one ye a r. I f t he not e s a re re de e m e d e a rly, you m a y not be a ble t o re inve st a t
c om pa ra ble t e rm s or re t urns. The term of your investment in the notes may be limited to as short as approximately
one year by the automatic early redemption feature of the notes. If the notes are redeemed prior to maturity, you may be
forced to invest in a lower interest rate environment and may not be able to reinvest at comparable terms or returns.

The redemption threshold level increases progressively over the term of the notes. The notes will be
redeemed only if the index closing value of the underlying index increases from the initial index value to be greater than or
equal to the then-applicable redemption threshold level on one of the first seven annual determination dates. Even if the
value of the underlying index appreciates over the term of the notes, it may not appreciate sufficiently for the notes to be
redeemed early (including because the redemption threshold level increases progressively over the term of the notes).

The market price of the notes w ill be influenced by many unpredictable factors. Several factors will
influence the value of the notes in the secondary market and the price at which MS & Co. may be willing to purchase or
sell the notes in the secondary market, including the value of the underlying index at any time, the volatility (frequency and
magnitude of changes in value) of the underlying index, dividend rate on the exchange traded funds ("ETFs") underlying
the index, interest and yield rates in the market, time remaining until the notes mature, geopolitical conditions and
economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events that affect the underlying index or equities markets generally and
which may affect the final index value of the underlying index and any actual or anticipated changes in our credit ratings or
credit spreads. Generally, the longer the time remaining to maturity, the more the market price of the notes will be affected
by the other factors described above. The value of the underlying index may be, and has recently been, volatile, and we
can give you no assurance that the volatility will lessen. See "Hypothetical Retrospective and Historical Information" below.
You may receive less, and possibly significantly less, than the stated principal amount per note if you try to sell your notes
prior to maturity.

The notes are subject to our credit risk, and any actual or anticipated changes to our credit ratings

guaranteed by any other entity. If we default on our obligations under the notes, your investment would be at risk and you
could lose some or all of your investment. As a result, the market value of the notes prior to maturity will be affected by
changes in the market's view of our creditworthiness. Any actual or anticipated decline in our credit ratings or increase in
the credit spreads charged by the market for taking our credit risk is likely to adversely affect the market value of the notes.

As a finance subsidiary, MSFL has no independent operations beyond the issuance and administration of its securities and
will have no independent assets available for distributions to holders of MSFL securities if they make claims in respect of
such securities in a bankruptcy, resolution or similar proceeding. Accordingly, any recoveries by such holders will be limited
to those available under the related guarantee by Morgan Stanley and that guarantee will rank pari passu with all other
unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of Morgan Stanley. Holders will have recourse only to a single claim against Morgan
Stanley and its assets under the guarantee. Holders of securities issued by MSFL should accordingly assume that in any
such proceedings they would not have any priority over and should be treated pari passu with the claims of other
unsecured, unsubordinated creditors of Morgan Stanley, including holders of Morgan Stanley-issued securities.

There are risks associated w ith the underlying index.

The level of the underlying index can go dow n as w ell as up. There can be no assurance that the
underlying index will achieve positive returns. The underlying index tracks the performance of a rules-based
investment methodology that selects a hypothetical portfolio of Underlying Assets to track. The performance of the
underlying index will depend on the performance of that hypothetical portfolio minus the sum of the 3-month
LIBOR and a servicing cost of 0.85% per annum. If the hypothetical portfolio declines in value, the index value will
