EXT. RESTAURANT – DAY or NIGHT
A diverse group of friends dining together and complain about their current banks. We join them in the middle of a conversation.
WOMAN 1
I’m not even sure of the name of my bank anymore, it’s been bought so many times. I know they don’t know my name.
MORGAN STANLEY CLIENT (WOMAN 2)
(That’s why I no longer use a traditional bank, but moved my cash management to Morgan Stanley)
MAN 1
(You can do direct deposits and pay bills with Morgan Stanley?)
MORGAN STANLEY CLIENT (WOMAN 2)
With a Morgan Stanley brokerage account, such as CashPlus, I can do everything that I need: I write checks, pay bills online, make mobile deposits. Even send money through Zelle. Oh, and I forgot the debit card!
On screen: show CashPlus checks, screens for bill pay, and Zelle©, mobile deposit, and then Debit card.
She pulls out the new CashPlus debit card and the table is impressed.
MAN 2
Are there ATM fees? / What are the ATM fees?
MORGAN STANLEY CLIENT (WOMAN 2)
I can get unlimited ATM rebates worldwide with my Morgan Stanley Debit Card
WOMAN 1
Any ATM worldwide?

EXT. RESTAURANT
MAN 2
But what if you need cash? Like, I like to give out cash around the holidays.
MORGAN STANLEY CLIENT (WOMAN 2)
It’s simple! Because my debit card is from Mastercard, I can walk into a branch of most banks, approach the teller, and tell them I would like to withdraw cash. It’s a convenient way to access the cash in my account. For large withdrawals, it’s a good idea to call in advance to make sure the bank can accommodate the request.
CUT TO:
INT. TRADITIONAL BANK – DAY
A normal brick and mortar bank with CUSTOMERS waiting in line.

Thank you so much!

EXT. RESTAUR
MAN 1
So basically, I can get cash at most bank branches with my Morgan Stanley Debit Card?
MORGAN STANLEY CLIENT (WOMAN 2)
That’s the way I see it.
Woman 2 pulls out her American Express Platinum for Morgan Stanley card and shows the table.
MORGAN STANLEY CLIENT (WOMAN 2)
I’ve also got the American Express Platinum Card from Morgan Stanley. What’s more, I get an Annual Engagement Bonus of $695 from Morgan Stanley! Have you heard about this bonus?
MAN 1
I don’t think so.
MORGAN STANLEY CLIENT (WOMAN 2)
You could be eligible for it, BUT only with a Platinum CashPlus account. You really should speak to your Financial Advisor.
WOMAN 1
Are your funds protected at Morgan Stanley?
MORGAN STANLEY CLIENT (WOMAN 2)
Morgan Stanley actually owns TWO insured banks, so I can get FDIC coverage through both of them.
WOMAN 1
Wow. That sounds so much better than what we have.

MAN 1
Is there an account fee?
MORGAN STANLEY CLIENT (WOMAN 2)
Well, there’s qualifying criteria, but in my opinion, it’s fairly easy to meet. I had to switch my direct deposit over.
WOMAN 1 & MAN 1 & MAN 2
That sounds amazing.
WOMAN 1
Why doesn’t everyone know about this?
Morgan Stanley Client gestures for everyone at the table to lean in.
MORGAN STANLEY CLIENT (WOMAN 2)
(whispering)
Because it’s only available to Morgan Stanley Clients.
