2023.

Expense
Example
(unaudited)
Calvert
International
Responsible
Index
ETF
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust
As
a
shareholder
of
the
Fund,
you
incur
two
types
of
costs:
(1)
transactional
costs;
and
(2)
ongoing
costs,
which
may
include man-
agement
fees,
and
distribution
and
shareholder
services
fees.
This
example
is
intended
to
help
you
understand
your
ongoing
costs
(in
dollars)
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
to
compare
these
costs
with
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
other
funds.
This
example
is
based
on
an
investment
of
$1,000
invested
at
the
beginning
of
the
six-month
period
ended
September
30,
2023 and
held
for
the
entire
six-month
period.
Actual
Expenses
The
table
below
provides
information
about
actual
account
values
and
actual
expenses.
You
may
use
the
information
in
this
table,
together
with
the
amount
you
invested,
to
estimate
the
expenses
that
you
paid
over
the
period.
Simply
divide
your
account
value
by
$1,000
(for
example,
an
$8,600
account
value
divided
by
$1,000
=
8.6),
then
multiply
the
result
by
the
number
in
the
table
under
the
heading
entitled
“Actual
Expenses
Paid
During
Period”
to
estimate
the
expenses
you
paid
on
your
account
during
this
period.
Hypothetical Example
for
Comparison
Purposes
The
table
below
provides
information
about
hypothetical
account
values
and
hypothetical
expenses
based
on
the
Fund’s
actual
expense
ratio
and
an
assumed
rate
of
return
of
5%
per
year
before
expenses,
which
is
not
the
Fund’s
actual
return.
The
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
may
not
be
used
to
estimate
the
actual
ending
account
balance
or
expenses
you
paid
for
the
period.
You
may
use
this
information
to
compare
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
other
funds.
To
do
so,
compare
this
5%
hypothetical
example
with
the
5%
hypothetical
examples
that
appear
in
the
shareholder
reports
of
the
other
funds. 
Please
note
that
the
expenses
shown
in
the
table
are
meant
to
highlight
your
ongoing
costs
only
and
do
not
reflect
any
transactional
costs,
such
as
sales
charges
(loads).
Therefore,
the
information
for
each
class
in
the
table
is
useful
in
comparing
ongoing
costs
only,
and
will
not
help
you
determine
the
relative
total
costs
of
owning
different
funds.
In
addition,
if
these
transactional
costs
were
included,
your
costs
would
have
been
higher.

Annual

Investment
Overview
(unaudited)
Calvert
International
Responsible
Index
ETF
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust
Economic
and
Market
Conditions
For
global
equity
investors,
the
8-month
period
ended
September
30,
2023,
was
a
roller-coaster
ride,
driven
largely
by
shifting
perceptions
of
whether
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(the
Fed)
could
bring
the
world’s
largest
economy
in
for
a
soft
landing,
and
changing
expectations
of
how
long
interest
rates
might
remain
high.
As
the
period
opened,
global
equities
were
in
the
midst
of
a
rally
that
lasted
through
July
2023.
The
initial
tailwind
was
ChatGPT,
an
artificial
intelligence
(AI)
application
that
led
investors
to
perceive
AI
might
become
the
next
big
innovation
to
drive
the
information
technology
(IT)
sector.
As
a
result,
IT
-
one
of
the
worst-performing
sectors
in
2022
-
became
the
standout
sector
during
the
first
half
of
2023.
Earlier
recession
fears
that
had
weighed
on
stock
prices
reced-
ed,
as
many
investors
came
around
to
the
view
that
the
U.S.
and
global
economies
were
doing
surprisingly
well.
European
equities
received
an
additional
boost
as
feared
continent-wide
energy
shortages
failed
to
materialize
during
the
winter.
But
in
the
final
two
months
of
the
period,
the
bond
market
halted
the
stock
market’s
momentum.
As
it
became
clear
the
Fed
would
keep
interest
rates
higher
for
longer
than
investors
had
anticipated
just
a
few
months
earlier,
longer
term
bond
rates
rose.
Given
the
potential
for
relatively
attractive
returns
with
lower
risk
than
stocks,
many
investors
shifted
from
equity
assets
to
bonds,
and
stock
prices
ended
on
a
down
note
as
the
period
came
to
a
close.
For
the
period
as
a
whole,
the
MSCI
World
ex
USA
Index
returned
-1.58%,
as
many
overseas
markets
gave
back
earlier
gains
in
the
closing
months
of
the
period.
In
contrast,
the
Russell
1000®
Index,
a
measure
of
U.S.
large-cap
stocks
that
included
many
beneficiaries
of
the
AI
boom,
returned
7.55%.
Fund
Performance
For
the
8-month
period
from
inception
on
January
30,
2023,
through
September
30,
2023,
Calvert
International
Responsi-
ble
Index
ETF
(the
Fund)
returned
-1.66%
based
on
net
asset
value
(NAV)
and
reinvestment
of
distributions
per
share,
net
of
fees.
The
Fund
underperformed
its
primary
benchmark,
the
MSCI
World
ex
USA
Index
(the
Index),
which
returned
-1.58%
and
underperformed
its
secondary
benchmark,
the
Calvert
International
Responsible
Index
(the
Calvert
Index),
which
returned
-1.62%
during
the
period.
The
Fund’s
underperformance
versus
the
Calvert
Index
was
due
to
Fund
expenses
and
fees,
which
the
Calvert
Index
does
not
incur.
Of
the
Fund’s
11
market
sectors,
consumer
discretionary,
energy,
health
care,
and
information
technology
(IT)
delivered
positive
returns
during
the
period.
The
strongest-performing
sectors
were
energy,
IT,
and
health
care.
The
weakest-per-
forming
sectors
were
real
estate,
communication
services,
and
financials.
Detractors
from
Fund
performance
versus
the
Index
included
stock
selections
in
the
industrials
sector;
stock
selections
and
an
overweight
position
in
the
financials
sector,
which
deliv-
ered
negative
returns
during
a
period
that
included
three
of
the
largest
bank
failures
in
U.S.
history;
and
stock
selections
and
an
underweight
position
in
the
energy
sector
-
the
stron-
gest-performing
sector
within
the
Index
and
the
Fund,
as
rising
oil
prices
boosted
energy
stock
returns
during
the
period.
In
the
industrials
sector,
not
owning
Japanese
industrial
con-
glomerate
Mitsubishi
Corp.
(Mitsubishi)
and
British
aerospace
and
defense
firm
Rolls-Royce
Holdings
Plc.
(Rolls-Royce)
-
two
Index
positions
that
delivered
strong
performance
-
detracted
from
Index-relative
returns
during
the
period.
Mitsubishi’s
stock
price
was
lifted
by
pent-up
demand
for
the
company’s
small
vehicles
in
post-COVID
Asian
emerging
markets,
along
with
a
weak
yen
and
stock
buybacks.
Rolls-Royce
reported
strong
sales
and
profit
growth
resulting
from
a
multiyear
turn-
around
effort
and
strong
sales
of
its
aircraft
engines
as
travel
recovered
after
the
pandemic.
In
the
financials
sector,
the
Fund’s
out-of-Index
positions
in
South
Korean
financial
holding
companies
KB
Financial
Group,
Inc.
and
Shinhan
Financial
Group
Co.
Ltd.
both
de-
clined
in
value
and
detracted
from
Index-relative
performance
during
the
period.
In
contrast,
contributors
to
Fund
performance
versus
the
Index
included
stock
selections
in
the
materials
sector;
stock
selections
and
an
overweight
position
in
the
IT
sector;
and
stock
selections
and
an
underweight
position
in
the
real
estate
sector
-
the
worst-performing
sector
within
the
Index
and
the
Fund,
as
property
sales
were
hampered
by
rising
mortgage
rates
during
the
period
and
companies
cut
back
on
office
space
in
the
aftermath
of
the
pandemic.
In
the
materials
sector,
contributors
to
Index-relative
returns
included
the
Fund’s
out-of-Index
positions
in
South
Korean
steel
maker
POSCO
Holdings,
Inc.
-
whose
battery
materi-
als
business
benefited
from
strong
demand
for
lithium
-
and
U.K.-headquartered
Linde
Plc.
-
one
of
the
world’s
largest
suppliers
of
industrial
gases.

1.
Security
Valuation:
(1)
An
equity
portfolio
security
list-
ed
or
traded
on
an
exchange
is
valued
at
its
latest
reported
sales
price
(or
at
the
exchange
official
closing
price
if
such
exchange
reports
an
official
closing
price),
and
if
there
were
no
sales
on
a
given
day
and
if
there
is
no
official
ex-
change
closing
price
for
that
day,
the
security
is
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
last
reported
bid
and
asked
prices
if
such
bid
and
asked
prices
are
available
on
the
relevant
exchanges.
If
only
bid
prices
are
available
then
the
latest
bid
price
may
be
used.
Listed
equity
securities
not
traded
on
the
valuation
date
with
no
reported
bid
and
asked
prices
available
on
the
exchange
are
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
current
bid
and
asked
prices
obtained
from
one
or
more
reputable
brokers/dealers.
In
cases
where
a
security
is
traded
on
more
than
one
exchange,
the
secu-
rity
is
valued
on
the
exchange
designated
as
the
primary
market;
(2)
all
other
equity
portfolio
securities
for
which
over-the-counter
(“OTC”)
market
quotations
are
readily
available
are
valued
at
the
latest
reported
sales
price
(or
at
the
market
official
closing
price
if
such
market
reports
an
official
closing
price),
and
if
there
was
no
trading
in
the
security
on
a
given
day
and
if
there
is
no
official
closing
price
from
relevant
markets
for
that
day,
the
security
is
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
last
reported
bid
and
asked
prices
if
such
bid
and
asked
prices
are
available
on
the
relevant
markets.
An
unlisted
equity
security
that
does
not
trade
on
the
valuation
date
and
for
which
bid
and
asked
prices
from
the
relevant
markets
are
unavailable
is
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
current
bid
and
asked
prices
obtained
from
one
or
more
reputable
brokers/deal-
ers;
(3)
fixed
income
securities
may
be
valued
by
an
out-
side
pricing
service/vendor
approved
by
the
Trust’s
Board
of
Trustees
(the
“Trustees”).
The
pricing
service/vendor
may
employ
a
pricing
model
that
takes
into
account,
among
other
things,
bids,
yield
spreads
and/or
other
mar-
ket
data
and
specific
security
characteristics.
If
Morgan
Stanley
Investment
Management
Inc.
(the
“Adviser”)
a
wholly-owned
subsidiary
of
Morgan
Stanley,
determines
that
the
price
provided
by
the
outside
pricing
service/ven-
dor
or
exchange
does
not
reflect
the
security’s
fair
value
or
is
unable
to
provide
a
price,
prices
from
brokers
or
dealers
may
also
be
utilized.
In
these
circumstances,
the
value
of
the
security
will
be
the
mean
of
bid
and
asked
prices
obtained
from
reputable brokers/dealers;
(4)
when
market
quotations
are
not
readily
available,
as
defined
by
Rule
2a-5
under
the
Act,
including
circumstances
under
which
the
Adviser
determines
that
the
closing
price,
last
sale
price
or
the
mean
between
the
last
reported
bid
and
asked
prices
are
not
reflective
of
a
security’s
market
value,
portfolio
securities
are
valued
at
their
fair
value
as
determined
in

faith
under

daily
using
an
independent

at
the

close
of

(6)
investments
in

as
of
the
close
of

business
day.
In
connection
with
Rule
2a-5
of
the
Act,
the
Trust-
ees
have
designated
the
Trust's
Adviser
as
its
valuation
designee.
The

designee
has
responsibility
for
determining
fair
value
and
to
make
the
actual
calculations
pursuant
to
the
fair
valuation
methodologies
previously
approved
by
the
Trustees.
Under
procedures
approved
by
the
Trustees,
the
Trust’s
Adviser
has
formed
a
Valuation
Committee
whose
members
are
approved
by
the
Trustees.

Fair
Value
Measurement:
Financial
Accounting
Stan-
dards
Board
(“FASB”)
Accounting
Standards
Codifica-
tion
TM
("ASC"),
“Fair
Value
Measurement”
(“ASC
820”),
defines
fair
value
as
the
price
that
would
be
received
to
sell
an
asset
or
pay to
transfer
a
liability
in
an orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measure-
ment
date. ASC
820
establishes
a
three tier
hierarchy
to
distinguish
between
(1)
inputs
that
reflect
the
assump-
tions
market
participants
would
use
in
valuing
an
asset
or
liability
developed
based
on
market
data
obtained
from
sources
independent
of
the
reporting
entity
(observable
inputs)
and
(2)
inputs
that
reflect
the
reporting
entity’s
own
assumptions
about
the
assumptions
market
partici-
pants
would
use
in
valuing
an
asset
or
liability
developed
based
on
the
best
information
available
in
the
circum-
stances
(unobservable
inputs)
and
to
establish
classifica-
tion
of
fair
value
measurements
for
disclosure
purposes.
Various
inputs
are
used
in
determining
the
value
of
the
Fund’s
investments.
The
inputs
are
summarized
in
the
three
broad
levels
listed
below:
Level
1
unadjusted
quoted
prices
in
active
markets
for
identical
investments.
Level
2
-
other
significant
observable
inputs
(includ-
ing
quoted
prices
for
similar
investments,
interest
rates,
prepayment
speeds,
credit
risk,
etc.)
 Level
3
-
significant
unobservable
inputs
including
the
Fund’s
own
assumptions
in
determin-
ing
the
fair
value
of
investments.
Factors
considered
in
making
this
determination
may
include,
but
are
not
limited
to,
infor-
mation
obtained
by
contacting
the
issuer,
analysts,
or
the
appropriate
stock
exchange
(for
exchange-traded
securities),
analysis
of
the
issuer’s
financial
statements
or
other
available
documents
and,
if
necessary,
available
information
concerning
other
securities
in
similar
circumstances.
The
inputs
or
methodology
used
for
valuing
securities
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
associated
with
investing
in
those
securities
and
the
determination
of
the
significance
of
a
particular
input
to
the
fair
value
mea-
surement
in
its
entirety
requires
judgment
and
considers
factors
specific
to
each
security. 
The
following
is

the
inputs
used

3.
Foreign
Currency
Translation
and
Foreign
Invest-
ments:
The
books
and
records
of
the
Fund
are
main-
tained
in
U.S.
dollars.
Foreign
currency
amounts
are
translated
into
U.S.
dollars
as
follows: 
investments,
other
assets
and
liabilities
at
the
prevail-
ing
rate
of
exchange
on
the
valuation
date;
investment
transactions
and
investment
income
at
the
prevailing
rates
of
exchange
on
the
dates
of
such
transactions. 
Although
the
net
assets
of
the
Fund
are
presented
at
the
foreign
exchange
rates
and
market
values
at
the
close
of
the
period,
the
Fund
does
not
isolate
that
portion
of
the
results
of
operations
arising
as
a
result
of
changes
in
the
foreign
exchange
rates
from
the
fluctuations
arising
from
changes
in
the
market
prices
of
securities
held
at
period
end.
Similarly,
the
Fund
does
not
isolate
the
effect
of
changes
in
foreign
exchange
rates
from
the
fluctuations
arising
from
changes
in
the
market
prices
of
securities
sold
during
the
period.
Accordingly,
realized
and
unre-
alized
foreign
currency
gains
(losses)
on
investments
in
securities
are
included
in
the
reported
net
realized
and
unrealized
gains
(losses)
on
investment
transactions
and
balances.
However,
pursuant
to
U.S.
federal
income
tax
regulations,
gains
and
losses
from
certain
foreign
currency
transactions
and
the
foreign
currency
portion
of
gains
and
losses
realized
on
sales
and
maturities
of
foreign
de-
nominated
debt
securities
are
treated
as
ordinary
income
for
U.S.
federal
income
tax
purposes.

the
Adviser
is paid
monthly
at
the
annual

of
0.18% of
the
average
daily
net

of
the
Fund.
Under
the
Agreement,
the
Adviser pays sub-
stantially
all
the
expenses
of
the
Fund
(including
expenses
of
the
Trust
relating
to
the
Fund),
except

and
other
extraordinary
expenses,
including
the
costs
of
proxies,
not
incurred
in
the
ordinary
course
of
the
Fund’s
business. 
C.
Distribution
and
Shareholder Services
Plan:
The
Trustees
have
adopted
a
distribution
and
services
plan
("Plan")
pursuant
Rule
12b-1
under the
Act. 
Under the
Plan,
the
Fund
is
authorized
to
pay
distribution
fees
in
connection
with
the
sale
of
its
shares
and
pay
service
fees
in
connection
with
the
provision
of
ongoing
services
to
shareholders
of
the
Fund
and
the
maintenance
of
shareholder
accounts
in
an
amount
up
to
0.25%
of
its
average
daily
net
assets.
No
Rule
12b-1
fees
are
currently
paid
by
the
Fund
and
there
are
no
current
plans
to
impose
these
fees.
D.
Dividend
Disbursing
and
Transfer
Agent:
The
Trust’s
dividend
disbursing
and
transfer
agent
is
JPMorgan
Chase
Bank,
N.A.
("JPMorgan").
E.
Custodian
and
Administrator:
JPMorgan also
serves
as
Custodian
and
Administrator for
the
Trust in
accordance
with
a
Custodian
and
Administration Agreement.
F.
Issuance
and
Redemption
of
Fund
Shares:
The
Fund
is
an
exchange-traded
fund
or
ETF.
Individual
Fund
shares
may
only
be
purchased
and
sold
on
a
national
securi-
ties
exchange
through
a
broker-dealer
and
investors
may
pay
a
commission
to
such
broker-dealers
in
connection
with
their
purchase
or
sale.
The
price
of
Fund
shares
is
based
on
market
price,
and
because
ETF
shares
trade
at
market
prices
rather
than
NAV,
shares
may
trade
at
a
price
greater
than
NAV
(a
premium)
or
less
than
NAV
(a
discount). 
The
Fund
will
only
issue
or
redeem
shares
aggregated
into
blocks
of 100,000
shares
or
multiples
thereof
(“Creation
Units”)
to
Authorized
Participants
who
have
entered
into
agreements
with
the
Funds’
Distributor.
An
Authorized
Partici-
pant
is
either
(1)
a
“Participating
Party,”
(i.e.,
a
broker-dealer
or
other
participant
in
the
clearing
process
of
the
Continuous
Net
Settlement
System
of
the
National
Securities
Clearing
Corpo-
ration)
(“Clearing
Process”),
or
(2)
a
participant
of
Depository
Trust
Company (“DTC
Participant”),
and,
in
each
case,
must
have
executed
an
agreement
(“Participation
Agreement”)
with
the
Distributor
with
respect
to
creations
and
redemptions
of
Creation
Units.
The
Fund
will
issue
or
redeem
Creation
Units
in
return
for
a
basket
of
assets
that
the
Fund
specifies
each
day.
Shares
are
listed
on
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange Arca
("NYSE
Arca") and
are
publicly
traded.
If an
investor buys
or
sells
Fund
shares
on
the
secondary
market, the
investor will
pay
or
receive
the
market
price,
which
may
be
higher
or
lower
than
NAV. The
investor's transaction
will
be
priced
at
NAV
if the
investor purchases
or
redeems
Fund
shares
in
Creation
Units.
Authorized
Participants
purchasing
and
redeeming
Creation

directly
related
to
the

and
redemption
of
Creation

may
be
charged
for
certain

Such
fees
would
be
included
in
the

G.
Security
Transactions
and
Transactions
with
Af-
filiates:
For
the
year ended
September
30,
2023 purchases
and
sales
of
investment
securities
for
the
Fund,
other
than
long-term
U.S.
Government
securities,
short-term
investments
and
In-Kind transactions were $28,564,399
and
$4,631,650,
respectively.
There
were
no
purchases
and
sales
of
long-term
U.S.
Government
securities
for
the
year
ended
September
30,
2023. Purchase
and
Sales
related
to
In-Kind
transactions
were
$36,372,927 and
$0 for
year end.
The
Fund
invests
in
the
Institutional
Class
of
the
Morgan
Stanley
Institutional
Liquidity
Funds
Government
Portfolio
(the
“Liquidity
Fund”),
an
open-end
management
investment
company
managed
by
the
Adviser. Management fees
paid
by
the
Fund
are
reduced
by
an
amount
equal
to
its
pro-rata
share
of
the management
fees
paid
by
the
Fund
due
to
its
invest-
ment
in
the
Liquidity
Fund.
For
the
year ended
September
30,
2023, management
fees
paid
were
reduced
by $137 relating
to
the
Fund’s
investment
in
the
Liquidity
Fund. 
A
summary
of
the
Fund’s
transactions
in
shares
of
affiliated
investments
during
the
year ended
September
30,
2023 is
as
follows: 
H.
Federal
Income
Taxes:
It
is
the
Fund’s
intention
to
continue
to
qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company
and
distribute
all
of
its
taxable
and
tax
exempt income.
Accordingly,
no
provision
for
federal
income
taxes
is
required
in
the
finan-
cial
statements. 
The
Fund
may
be
subject
to
taxes
imposed
by
countries
in
which
it
invests.
Such
taxes
are
generally
based
on
income
and/
or
capital
gains
earned
or
repatriated.
Taxes
are
accrued
based
on
net
investment
income,
net
realized
gains
and
net
unreal-
ized
appreciation
as
such
income
and/or
gains
are
earned.
Taxes
may
also
be
based
on
transactions
in
foreign
currency
and
are
accrued
based
on
the
value
of
investments
denominated
in
such
currency.
FASB
ASC
740-10,
“Income
Taxes—Overall”,
sets
forth
a
minimum
threshold
for
financial
statement
recognition
of
the
benefit
of
a
tax
position
taken
or
expected
to
be
taken
in
a
tax
return.
Management
has
concluded
there
are
no
significant
uncertain
tax
positions
that
would
require
recognition
in
the
financial
statements.
If
applicable,
the
Fund
recognizes
inter-
est
accrued
related
to
unrecognized
tax
benefits
in
“Interest
Expense”
and
penalties
in
“Other
Expenses”
in
the
Statement
of
Operations.
The
Fund
files
tax
returns
with
the
U.S.
Internal
Revenue
Service,
New
York
and
various
states.
The
tax
year
ended
September
30,
2023 remains
subject
to
examination
by
taxing
authorities.
The
tax
character
of
distributions
paid
may
differ
from
the
character
of
distributions
shown
for
GAAP
purposes
due
to
short-term
capital
gains
being
treated
as
ordinary
income
for
tax
purposes.
The
tax
character
of
distributions
paid
during
fiscal
year 2023
was
as
follows: 
The
amount
and
character
of
income
and
gains
to
be
distrib-
uted
are
determined
in
accordance
with
income
tax
regulations
which
may
differ
from
GAAP.
These
book/tax
differences
are
either
considered
temporary
or
permanent
in
nature. 
Temporary
differences
are
attributable
to
differing
book
and
tax
treatments
for
the
timing
of
the
recognition
of
gains
(loss-
es)
on
certain
investment
transactions
and
the
timing
of
the
deductibility
of
certain
expenses. 
The
Fund
had
no
permanent
differences
causing
reclassifica-
tions
among
the
components
of
net
assets
for
the
year ended
September
30,
2023. 
At
September
30,
2023,
the
components
of
distributable
earn-
ings
for
the
Fund
on
a
tax
basis
were

I.
Principal
Risks:
Market
Risk:
An
investment
in
the
Fund
is
based
on
the
values
of
the
Fund’s
investments,
which
may
change
due
to
economic
and
other
events
that
affect
markets
generally,
as
well
as
those
that
affect
particular
regions,
countries,
industries,
companies
or
governments.
The
risks
associated
with
these
developments
may
be
magnified
if
social,
political,
economic
and
other
conditions
and
events
(such
as
war,
natural
disasters,
health
emergencies
(e.g.,
epidemics
and
pandemics),
terrorism,
conflicts,
social
unrest,
recessions,
inflation,
rapid
interest
rate
changes
and
supply
chain
disruptions)
adversely
interrupt
the
global
economy
and
financial
markets.
It
is
difficult
to
predict
when
events
affecting
the
U.S.
or
global
financial
markets
may
occur,
the
effects
that
such
events
may
have
and
the
duration
of
those
effects
(which
may
last
for
extended
periods).
These
events
may
negatively
impact
broad
segments
of
businesses
and
populations
and
have
a
significant
and
rapid
negative
impact
on
the
performance
of
the
Fund’s
investments,
adversely
affect
and
increase
the
volatility
of
the
Fund’s
share
price
and
exacerbate
pre-existing
risks
to
the
Fund.  The
occurrence,
duration
and
extent
of
these
or
other
types
of
adverse
econom-
ic
and
market
conditions
and
uncertainty
over
the
long
term
cannot
be
reasonably
projected
or
estimated
at
this
time.
The
ultimate
impact
of
public
health
emergencies
or
other
adverse
economic
or
market
developments
and
the
extent
to
which
the
associated
conditions
impact
the
Fund
and
its
investments
will
also
depend
on
other
future
developments,
which
are
highly
uncertain,
difficult
to
accurately
predict
and
subject
to
change
at
any
time.
The
financial
performance
of
the
Fund’s
invest-
ments
(and,
in
turn,
the
Fund’s
investment
results)
as
well
as
their
liquidity
may
be
adversely
affected
because
of
these
and
similar
types
of
factors
and
developments.
Tracking
Error
Risk:
Tracking
error
risk
refers
to
the
risk
that
the
Fund’s
performance
may
not
match
or
correlate
to
that
of
the
index
it
attempts
to
track,
either
on
a
daily
or
aggregate
basis.
Because
the
Fund
uses
a
representative
sampling
index-
ing
strategy,
it
can
be
expected
to
have
a
larger
tracking
error
than
if
it
used
a
replication
indexing
strategy.
Tracking
error
may
occur
because
of
transaction
costs,
the
Fund’s
holding
of
cash,
differences
in
accrual
of
dividends,
changes
to
the
index
or
the
need
to
meet
new
or
existing
regulatory
requirements.
Factors
such
as
Fund
expenses,
imperfect
correlation
between
the
Fund’s
investments
and
the
index,
rounding
of
share
prices,
changes
to
the
composition
of
the
index,
regulatory
policies,
limitations
on
Fund
investments
imposed
by
Fund
diversifica-
tion
and/or
concentration
policies,
high
portfolio
turnover
rate
and
the
use
of
leverage
all
contribute
to
tracking
error.
Unlike
the
Fund,
the
returns
of
the
index
are
not
reduced
by
invest-
ment
and
other
operating
expenses,
including
the
trading
costs
associated
with
implementing
changes
to
its
portfolio
of
invest-
ments.
Tracking
error
risk
may
cause
the
Fund’s
performance
to
be
less
than
expected.
Tracking
error
risk
may
be
heightened
during
times
of
market
volatility,
unusual
market
conditions
or
other
abnormal
circumstances.
The
Fund
may
be
required
to
deviate
its
investments
from
the
securities
and
relative
weight-
ings
of
the
index
to
comply
with
applicable
laws
and
regula-
tions
or
because
of
market
restrictions
or
other
legal
reasons,
including
regulatory
limits
or
other
restrictions
on
securities
that
may
be
purchased
by
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates.
Index
Related
Risk:
The
Fund’s
return
may
not
track
the
return
of
the
index
for
a
number
of
reasons
and
therefore
may
not
achieve
its
investment
objective.
For
example,
the
Fund
incurs
a
number
of
operating
expenses
not
applicable
to
the
index,
and
incurs
costs
in
buying
and
selling
securities,
espe-
cially
when
rebalancing
the
Fund’s
securities
holdings
to
reflect
changes
in
the
composition
of
the
index.
In
addition,
the
Fund’s
return
may
differ
from
the
return
of
the
index
because
of,
among
other
things,
pricing
differences
and
the
inability
to
purchase
certain
securities
included
in
the
index
due
to
regu-
latory
or
other
restrictions. 
In
addition,
because
the
Fund
uses
a
representative
sampling
approach,
the
Fund
can
be
expected
to
be
less
correlated
with
the
return
of
the
index
as
when
a
fund
purchases
all
of
the
securities
in
an
index
in
the
proportions
in
which
they
are
rep-
resented
in
the
index.
Errors
in
the
construction
or
calculation
of
the
index
may
occur
from
time
to
time.
Any
such
errors
may
not
be
identified
and
corrected
by
the
index
provider
for
some
period
of
time,
which
may
have
an
adverse
impact
on
the
Fund
and
its
shareholders.

Authorized
Participant
Concentration
Risk:
Only
an
authorized
participant
may
engage
in
creation
or
redemption
transactions
directly
with
the
Fund.
The
Fund
has
a
limited
number
of
intermediaries
that
act
as
authorized
participants
and
none
of
these
authorized
participants
is
or
will
be
obligated
to
engage
in
creation
or
redemption
transactions.
To
the
extent
that
these
intermediaries
exit
the
business
or
are
unable
to
or
choose
not
to
proceed
with
creation
and/or
redemption
orders
with
respect
to
the
Fund
and
no
other
authorized
participant
creates
or
redeems,
shares
may
trade
at
a
discount
to NAV
and
possibly
face
trading
halts
and/or
delisting. 
Trading
Risk:
The
market
prices
of
shares
are
expected
to
fluctuate,
in
some
cases
materially,
in
response
to
changes
in
the
Fund’s
NAV,
the
intra-day
value
of
the
Fund’s
holdings,
and
supply
and
demand
for

well
as
other
factors,
may
result
in
the
shares
trading
significantly
above
(at
a
premium)
or
below
(at
a
discount)
to
NAV
or
to
the
intraday
value
of
the
Fund’s
holdings
(and,
as
a
result,
an
investor
may
pay
more
for,
or
receive
less
than,
the
underlying
value
of
the
shares,
respectively).
Buying
or
selling
shares
in
the
secondary
market
may
require
paying
brokerage
commissions
or
other
charges
imposed
by
brokers
as
determined
by
that
broker.
Brokerage
commissions
are
often
a
fixed
amount
and
may
be
a
significant
proportional
cost
when
seeking
to
buy
or
sell
relatively
small
amounts
of
shares.
In
addition,
the
market
price
of
shares,
like
the
price
of
any
exchange-traded
security,
includes
a
“bid-ask
spread”
charged
by
the
market
makers
or
other
participants
that
trade
the
particular
security.
The
spread
of the
Fund’s
shares
varies
over
time
based
on
the
Fund’s
trad-
ing
volume
and
market
liquidity
and
may
increase
if
the
Fund’s
trading
volume,
the
spread
of
the
Fund’s
underlying
securities,
or
market
liquidity
decrease. 
Large
Shareholder
Transaction
Risk:
The
Fund
may
experience
adverse
effects
when
certain
shareholders
purchase
or
redeem
large
amounts
of
shares
of the
Fund.
In
addition,
a
third
party
investor,
the
Adviser
or
an
affiliate
of
the
Adviser,
an
authorized
participant,
a
lead
market
maker,
or
another
entity
(i.e.,
a
seed
investor)
may
invest
in
the
Fund
and
hold
its
investment
solely
to
facilitate
commencement
of
the
Fund
or
to
facilitate
the
Fund’s
achieving
a
specified
size
or
scale.
Any
such
investment
may
be
held
for
a
limited
period
of
time.
There
can
be
no
assurance
that
any
large
shareholder
would
not
redeem
its
investment,
that
the
size
of
the
Fund
would
be
maintained
at
such
levels
or
that
the
Fund
would
continue
to
meet
applicable
listing
requirements.
Such
larger
than
normal
redemptions
may
cause
the
Fund
to
sell
portfolio
securities
at
times
when
it
would
not
otherwise
do
so,
which
may
negative-
ly
impact
the
Fund’s
NAV
and
liquidity.
Similarly,
large
Fund
share
purchases
may
adversely
affect the
Fund’s
performance
to
the
extent
that the
Fund
is
delayed
in
investing
new
cash
and
is
required
to
maintain
a
larger
cash
position
than
it
ordinarily
would.
These
transactions
may
also
accelerate
the
realization
of
taxable
income
to
shareholders
if
such
sales
of
investments
resulted
in
gains
and
may
also
increase
transaction
costs.
In
addition,
a
large
redemption
could
result
in the
Fund’s
current
expenses
being
allocated
over
a
smaller
asset
base,
leading
to
an
increase
in the
Fund’s
expense
ratio.
Although
large
shareholder
transactions
may
be
more
frequent
under
certain
circumstanc-
es, the
Fund
is
generally
subject
to
the
risk
that
shareholders
can
purchase
or
redeem
a
significant
percentage
of
Fund
shares
at
any
time.
In
addition,
transactions
by
large
shareholders
may
account
for
a
large
percentage
of
the
trading
volume
on
NYSE
Arca
and
may,
therefore,
have
a
material
upward
or
downward
effect
on
the
market
price
of
the
shares. 
J.
Other:
At

ers
of

or
greater,
which
are

parties

In-
vestment
activities
of

impact

the
Fund.
The

Shareholders
and
Board
of
Trustees
of
Morgan

Trust
Calvert
International

ETF
Opinion
on
the
Financial
Statements
We
have
audited
the
accompanying
statement
of
assets
and
liabilities
of
Calvert
International
Responsible
Index
ETF
(the
“Fund”)
(one
of
the
funds
constituting
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust
(the
“Trust”)),
including
the
portfolio
of
investments,
as
of
September
30,
2023,
and
the
related
statements
of
operations
and
changes
in
net
assets
and
the
financial
highlights
for
the
period
from
January
30,
2023
(commencement
of
operations)
through
September
30,
2023,
and
the
related
notes
(collectively
referred
to
as
the
“financial
statements”).
In
our
opinion,
the
financial
statements
present
fairly,
in
all
material
respects,
the
financial
position
of
the
Fund
(one
of
the
funds
constituting
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust)
at
September
30,
2023,
and
the
results
of
its
operations,
the
changes
in
its
net
assets
and
its
financial
highlights
for
the
period
from
January
30,
2023
(commencement
of
operations)
through
September
30,
2023,
in
conformity
with
U.S.
generally
accepted
accounting
principles.
Basis
for
Opinion
These
financial
statements
are
the
responsibility
of
the
Trust’s
management.
Our
responsibility
is
to
express
an
opinion
on
the
Fund’s
financial
statements
based
on
our
audit.
We
are
a
public
accounting
firm
registered
with
the
Public
Company
Accounting
Oversight
Board
(United
States)
(“PCAOB”)
and
are
required
to
be
independent
with
respect
to
the
Trust
in
accordance
with
the
U.S.
federal
securities
laws
and
the
applicable
rules
and
regulations
of
the
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
and
the
PCAOB.
We
conducted
our
audit
in
accordance
with
the
standards
of
the
PCAOB.
Those
standards
require
that
we
plan
and
perform
the
audit
to
obtain
reasonable
assurance
about
whether
the
financial
statements
are
free
of
material
misstatement,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud.
The
Trust
is
not
required
to
have,
nor
were
we
engaged
to
perform,
an
audit
of
the
Trust’s
internal
control
over
financial
reporting.
As
part
of
our
audit,
we
are
required
to
obtain
an
understanding
of
internal
control
over
financial
reporting,
but
not
for
the
purpose
of
expressing
an
opinion
on
the
effectiveness
of
the
Trust’s
internal
control
over
financial
reporting.
Accordingly,
we
express
no
such
opinion.
Our
audit
included
performing
procedures
to
assess
the
risks
of
material
misstatement
of
the
financial
statements,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud,
and
performing
procedures
that
respond
to
those
risks.
Such
procedures
included
examining,
on
a
test
basis,
evidence
regarding
the
amounts
and
disclosures
in
the
financial
statements.
Our
procedures
included
confirmation
of
securities
owned
as
of
September
30,
2023,
by
correspondence
with
the
custodian,
brokers
and
others;
when
replies
were
not
received
from
brokers
and
others,
we
performed
other
auditing
procedures.
Our
audit
also
included
evaluating
the
accounting
principles
used
and
significant
estimates
made
by
management,
as
well
as
evaluating
the
overall
presentation
of
the
financial
statements.
We
believe
that
our
audit
provides
a
reasonable
basis
for
our
opinion.
We
have
served
as
the
auditor
of
one
or
more
Morgan
Stanley
investment
companies
since
2000.

that
the
voting
of

As
such,
the

have
delegated
the

to
vote
such

to
the

Expense
Example
(unaudited)
Calvert
Ultra-Short
Investment
Grade
ETF
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust
As
a
shareholder
of
the
Fund,
you
incur
two
types
of
costs:
(1)
transactional
costs;
and
(2)
ongoing
costs,
which
may
include man-
agement
fees,
and
distribution
and
shareholder
services
fees.
This
example
is
intended
to
help
you
understand
your
ongoing
costs
(in
dollars)
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
to
compare
these
costs
with
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
other
funds.
This
example
is
based
on
an
investment
of
$1,000
invested
at
the
beginning
of
the
six-month
period
ended
September
30,
2023 and
held
for
the
entire
six-month
period.
Actual
Expenses
The
table
below
provides
information
about
actual
account
values
and
actual
expenses.
You
may
use
the
information
in
this
table,
together
with
the
amount
you
invested,
to
estimate
the
expenses
that
you
paid
over
the
period.
Simply
divide
your
account
value
by
$1,000
(for
example,
an
$8,600
account
value
divided
by
$1,000
=
8.6),
then
multiply
the
result
by
the
number
in
the
table
under
the
heading
entitled
“Actual
Expenses
Paid
During
Period”
to
estimate
the
expenses
you
paid
on
your
account
during
this
period.
Hypothetical Example
for
Comparison
Purposes
The
table
below
provides
information
about
hypothetical
account
values
and
hypothetical
expenses
based
on
the
Fund’s
actual
expense
ratio
and
an
assumed
rate
of
return
of
5%
per
year
before
expenses,
which
is
not
the
Fund’s
actual
return.
The
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
may
not
be
used
to
estimate
the
actual
ending
account
balance
or
expenses
you
paid
for
the
period.
You
may
use
this
information
to
compare
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
other
funds.
To
do
so,
compare
this
5%
hypothetical
example
with
the
5%
hypothetical
examples
that
appear
in
the
shareholder
reports
of
the
other
funds. 
Please
note
that
the
expenses
shown
in
the
table
are
meant
to
highlight
your
ongoing
costs
only
and
do
not
reflect
any
transactional
costs,
such
as
sales
charges
(loads).
Therefore,
the
information
for
each
class
in
the
table
is
useful
in
comparing
ongoing
costs
only,
and
will
not
help
you
determine
the
relative
total
costs
of
owning
different
funds.
In
addition,
if
these
transactional
costs
were
included,
your
costs
would
have
been
higher.

Annual

September

2023
Investment
Overview
(unaudited)
Calvert
Ultra-Short
Investment
Grade
ETF
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust
Economic
and
Market
Conditions
During
the
8-month
period
ended
September
30,
2023,
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(the
Fed)
raised
the
federal
funds
rate
a
full
percentage
point
to
a
range
of
5.25%-5.50%,
part
of
a
series
of
11
rate
hikes
since
March
2022.
As
interest
rates
rose,
bond
prices
fell,
with
the
largest
changes
occurring
at
the
long
and
short
ends
of
the
yield
curve.
Performance
by
U.S.
Treasurys
was
hampered
by
the
Fed’s
rate
hikes,
while
investment-grade
securities
and
high
yield
corpo-
rate
bonds
did
relatively
better.
This
reflected
a
growing
appe-
tite
for
investment
risk,
driven
in
part
by
hopes
that
the
Fed
might
guide
the
world’s
largest
economy
in
for
a
soft
landing
and
avoid
a
possible
recession.
A
continuing
irony
throughout
the
period
was
that
good
U.S.
economic
news
low
unemployment
and
robust
consumer
spending
was
viewed
as
fuel
for
inflation
and
sparked
fears
that
additional
Fed
rate
hikes
intended
to
slow
consumer
de-
mand
would
further
weigh
on
stock
prices.
As
the
period
came
to
a
close,
long-term
bond
interest
rates
increased
and
bond
prices
dropped,
making
bond
yields
more
attractive
relative
to
stocks.
This
occurred
largely
at
the
long
end
of
the
yield
curve,
so
that
shorter
term
bonds
outper-
formed
longer
term
bonds
during
the
period.
For
the
period
as
a
whole,
the
Bloomberg
9-12
Months
Short
Treasury
Index
returned
2.81%.
Fund
Performance
For
the
8-month
period
from
inception
on
January
30,
2023,
through
September
30,
2023,
Calvert
Ultra-Short
Investment
Grade
ETF
(the
Fund)
returned
3.54%
based
on
net
asset
value
(NAV)
and
reinvestment
of
distributions
per
share,
net
of
fees.
The
Fund
outperformed
its
benchmark,
the
Bloomberg
9-12
Months
Short
Treasury
Index
(the
Index),
which
returned
2.81%.
On
the
up
side,
the
Fund’s
sector
allocation
contributed
most
to
performance
relative
to
the
Index
during
the
period.
Out-of-
Index
allocations
to
investment-grade
corporate
bonds,
com-
mercial
mortgage-backed
securities,
and
asset-backed
securities
were
especially
beneficial
to
Index-relative
returns.
The
Fund’s
short
interest
rate
duration
further
contributed
to
Index-rela-
tive
returns
during
the
period.
On
the
down
side,
yield-curve
positioning
in
the
Fund
detract-
ed
from
Index-relative
returns
during
the
period.

Morgan

Trust
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust
(the
“Trust”)
is
an
open-end,
management
investment
company
established
under
Delaware
law
as
a
Delaware
statutory
trust.
Pursuant
to
its
Declaration
of
Trust dated
May
31,
2016,
and
Amended
and
Restated
on
September
28,
2022
(the
“Declaration
of
Trust”),
the
Trust is
authorized
to
establish
multiple
series.
The
Trust
is
registered
under
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940,
as
amended
(the
“Act”).
The

In
the

has
evaluated
subsequent
events
occurring
after
the
date
of
the
Fund's
Statement
of
Assets
and

through
the
date
that
the
financial
statements
were
issued.
The
accompanying
financial

relate
to
the
Calvert

Investment
Grade
ETF (the
"Fund"),
which
seeks
to
maximize
income,
to
the
extent
consistent
with
preserva-

of
capital,
through
investment
in
short-term

and

securities.
The

A.
Significant
Accounting
Policies:
 The
following
signifi-
cant
accounting
policies
are
in
conformity
with
U.S.
generally
accepted
accounting
principles
(“GAAP”).
Such
policies
are
consistently
followed
by
the Trust
in
the
preparation
of
its
financial
statements.
GAAP
may
require
management
to
make
estimates
and
assumptions
that
affect
the
reported
amounts
and
disclosures
in
the
financial
statements.
Actual
results
may
differ
from
those
estimates.
1.
Security
Valuation:
(1)
fixed
income
securities
may
be
valued
by
an
outside
pricing
service/vendor
approved
by
the
Trust’s
Board
of
Trustees
(the
“Trustees”).
The
pricing
service/vendor
may
employ
a
pricing
model
that
takes
into
account,
among
other
things,
bids,
yield
spreads
and/or
other
market
data
and
specific
security
characteris-
tics.
If
Morgan
Stanley
Investment
Management
Inc.
(the
“Adviser”)
a
wholly-owned
subsidiary
of
Morgan
Stanley,
determines
that
the
price
provided
by
the
outside
pricing
service/vendor
or
exchange
does
not
reflect
the
security’s
fair
value
or
is
unable
to
provide
a
price,
prices
from
brokers
or
dealers
may
also
be
utilized.
In
these
circum-
stances,
the
value
of
the
security
will
be
the
mean
of
bid
and
asked
prices
obtained
from
reputable
brokers/dealers;
(2)
when
market
quotations
are
not
readily
available,
as
defined
by
Rule
2a-5
under
the
Act,
including
circum-
stances
under
which
the
Adviser
determines
that
the
closing
price,
last
sale
price
or
the
mean
between
the
last
reported
bid
and
asked
prices
are
not
reflective
of
a
secu-
rity’s
market
value,
portfolio
securities
are
valued
at
their
fair
value
as
determined
in
good
faith
under
procedures
established
by
and
under
the
general
supervision
of
the
Trustees;
(3)
futures
are
valued
at
the
settlement
price
on
the
exchange
on
which
they
trade
or,
if
a
settlement
price
is
unavailable,
at
the
last
sale
price
on
the
exchange; and
(4)
investments
in
mutual
funds,
including
the
Morgan
Stanley
Institutional
Liquidity
Funds,
are
valued
at
the
net
asset
value
(“NAV”)
as
of
the
close
of
each
business
day.
In
connection
with
Rule
2a-5
of
the
Act,
the
Trust-
ees
have
designated
the
Trust's
Adviser
as
its
valuation
designee.
The
valuation
designee
has
responsibility
for
determining
fair
value
and
to
make
the
actual
calculations
pursuant
to
the
fair
valuation
methodologies
previously
approved
by
the
Trustees.
Under
procedures
approved
by
the
Trustees,
the
Trust’s
Adviser
has
formed
a
Valuation
Committee
whose
members
are
approved
by
the
Trustees.
The
Valuation
Committee
provides
administration
and
oversight
of
the
Trust’s
valuation
policies
and
procedures,
which
are
reviewed
at
least
annually
by
the
Trustees.
These
procedures
allow
the Trust
to
utilize
independent
pricing
services,
quotations
from
securities
and
financial
instrument
dealers
and
other
market
sources
to
determine
fair
value.
2.
Fair
Value
Measurement:
Financial
Accounting
Stan-
dards
Board
(“FASB”)
Accounting
Standards
Codifica-
tion
TM
("ASC"),
“Fair
Value
Measurement”
(“ASC
820”),
defines
fair
value
as
the
price
that
would
be
received
to
sell
an
asset
or
pay to
transfer
a
liability
in
an orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measure-
ment
date. ASC
820
establishes
a
three tier
hierarchy
to
distinguish
between
(1)
inputs
that
reflect
the
assump-
tions
market
participants
would
use
in
valuing
an
asset
or
liability
developed
based
on
market
data
obtained
from
sources
independent
of
the
reporting
entity
(observable
inputs)
and
(2)
inputs
that
reflect
the
reporting
entity’s
own
assumptions
about
the
assumptions
market
partici-
pants
would
use
in
valuing
an
asset
or
liability
developed
based
on
the
best
information
available
in
the
circum-
stances
(unobservable
inputs)
and
to
establish
classifica-
tion
of
fair
value
measurements
for
disclosure
purposes.
Various
inputs
are
used
in
determining
the
value
of
the
Fund’s
investments.
The
inputs
are
summarized
in
the
three
broad
levels
listed
below:
Level
1
unadjusted
quoted
prices
in
active
markets
for
identical
investments.

Trust
Level

-
other
significant
observable
inputs
(includ-
ing
quoted
prices
for
similar
investments,
interest
rates,
prepayment
speeds,
credit
risk,
etc.)
 Level
3
-
significant
unobservable
inputs
including
the
Fund’s
own
assumptions
in
determin-
ing
the
fair
value
of
investments.
Factors
considered
in
making
this
determination
may
include,
but
are
not
limited
to,
infor-
mation
obtained
by
contacting
the
issuer,
analysts,
or
the
appropriate
stock
exchange
(for
exchange-traded
securities),
analysis
of
the
issuer’s
financial
statements
or
other
available
documents
and,
if
necessary,
available
information
concerning
other
securities
in
similar
circumstances.
The
inputs
or
methodology
used
for
valuing
securities
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
associated
with
investing
in
those
securities
and
the
determination
of
the
significance
of
a
particular
input
to
the
fair
value
mea-
surement
in
its
entirety
requires
judgment
and
considers
factors
specific
to
each
security. 
The
following
is
a
summary
of
the
inputs
used
to
value
the
Fund's
investments
as
of
September
30,
2023:
Transfers
between
investment
levels
may
occur
as
the
markets
fluctuate
and/or
the
availability
of
data
used
in
an
investment’s
valuation
changes. 
3.
Derivatives:
The
Fund
may,
but
is
not
required
to,
use
derivative
instruments
for
a
variety
of
purposes,
including
hedging,
risk
management,
portfolio
management
or
to
earn
income.
Derivatives
are
financial
instruments
whose
value
is
based,
in
part,
on
the
value
of
an
underlying
asset,
interest
rate,
index
or
financial
instrument.
Prevail-
ing
interest
rates
and
volatility
levels,
among
other
things,
also
affect
the
value
of
derivative
instruments.
A
deriva-
tive
instrument
often
has
risks
similar
to
its
underlying
asset
and
may
have
additional
risks,
including
imperfect
correlation
between
the
value
of
the
derivative
and
the
underlying
asset,
risks
of
default
by
the
counterparty
to
certain
transactions,
magnification
of
losses
incurred
due
to
changes
in
the
market
value
of
the
securities,
instru-
ments,
indices
or
interest
rates
to
which
the
derivative
instrument
relates,
risks
that
the
transactions
may
not
be
liquid
and
risks
arising
from
margin
requirements,
risks
arising
from
mispricing
or
valuation
complexity
and
operational
and
legal
risks. The
use
of
derivatives
involves
risks
that
are
different
from,
and
possibly
greater
than,
the
risks
associated
with
other
portfolio
investments.
Derivatives
may
involve
the
use
of
highly
specialized
instruments
that
require
investment
techniques
and
risk
analyses
different
from
those
associated
with
other
port-
folio
investments.
All
of
the
Fund’s
holdings,
including
derivative
instruments,
are
marked-to-market
each
day
with
the
change
in
value
reflected
in
unrealized
appreci-
ation
(depreciation).
Upon
disposition,
a
realized
gain
or
loss
is
recognized.
Certain
derivative
transactions
may
give
rise
to
a
form
of
leverage.
Leverage
magnifies
the
potential
for
gain
and
the
risk
of
loss.
Leverage
associated
with
derivative
transac-
tions
may
cause
the
Fund
to
liquidate
portfolio
positions
when
it
may
not
be
advantageous
to
do
so
to
satisfy
its
obligations
or
may
cause
the
Fund
to
be
more
volatile
than
if
the
Fund
had
not
been
leveraged.
Although
the
Adviser
seeks
to
use
derivatives
to
further
the
Fund’s
investment
objectives,
there
is
no
assurance
that
the
use
of
derivatives
will
achieve
this
result.
Following
is
a
description
of
the
derivative
instruments
and
techniques
that
the
Fund
used
during
the
period
and
their
associated
risks:

an
underlying
asset,
reference
rate
or
index
at
a
specif-
ic
price
at
a
specific
future
time.
The
value
of
a
futures
contract
tends
to
increase
and
decrease
in
tandem
with
the
value
of
the
underlying
instrument.
Depending
on
the
terms
of
the
particular
contract,
futures
contracts
are
settled
through
either
physical
delivery
of
the
underlying
instrument
on
the
settlement
date
or
by
payment
of
a
cash
settlement
amount
on
the
settlement
date.
During
the
period
the
futures
contract
is
open,
payments
are
received
from
or
made
to
the
broker
based
upon
chang-
es
in
the
value
of
the
contract
(the
variation
margin).
A
decision
as
to
whether,
when
and
how
to
use
futures
contracts
involves
the
exercise
of
skill
and
judgment
and
even
a
well-conceived
futures
transaction
may
be
unsuc-
cessful
because
of
market
behavior
or
unexpected
events.
In
addition
to
the
derivatives
risks
discussed
above,
the
prices
of
futures
contracts
can
be
highly
volatile,
using
futures
contracts
can
lower
total
return
and
the
potential
loss
from
futures
contracts
can
exceed
the
Fund’s
initial
investment
in
such
contracts.
No
assurance
can
be
given
that
a
liquid
market
will
exist
for
any
particular
futures
contract
at
any
particular
time.

Indemnifications:
The Trust
enters
into
contracts
that
contain
a
variety
of
indemnification
clauses.
The
Trust’s
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is

Dividends
and
Distributions
to
Shareholders: 
Divi-
dends
and
distributions
to
shareholders
are

for
certain
foreign
dividends
which
may
be

Non-cash
dividends
received
in
the

Plan:
The
Trustees
have
adopted
a
distribution

services
plan
("Plan")
pursuant
Rule
12b-1
under the
Act. 
Under the
Plan,
the

is
authorized
to

in
connection
with
the

is
JPMorgan

("JPMorgan").
E.
Custodian
and

JPMorgan also
serves
as
Custodian
and

the
Trust in
accordance
with
a
Custodian
and
Administration Agreement.
F.
Issuance
and
Redemption
of
Fund
Shares:
The
Fund
is
an
exchange-traded
fund
or
ETF.
Individual
Fund
shares
may
only
be
purchased
and
sold
on
a
national
securi-
ties
exchange
through
a
broker-dealer
and
investors
may
pay
a
commission
to
such
broker-dealers
in
connection
with
their
purchase
or
sale.
The
price
of
Fund
shares
is
based
on
market
price,
and
because
ETF
shares
trade
at
market
prices
rather
than
NAV,
shares
may
trade
at
a
price
greater
than
NAV
(a
premium)
or
less
than
NAV
(a
discount). 
The
Fund
will
only
issue
or
redeem
shares
aggregated
into
blocks
of 25,000
shares
or
multiples
thereof
(“Creation
Units”)
to
Authorized
Participants
who
have
entered
into
agreements
with
the
Funds’
Distributor.
An
Authorized
Participant
is
either
(1)
a
“Participating
Party,”
(i.e.,
a
broker-dealer
or
other
participant
in
the
clearing
process
of
the
Continuous
Net
Settlement
System
of
the
National
Securities
Clearing
Corpo-
ration)
(“Clearing

or
(2)
a
participant
of
Depository

and,
in
each
case,
must
have
executed
an
agreement
(“Participation
Agreement”)
with
the
Distributor
with
respect
to
creations
and
redemptions
of
Creation
Units.
The
Fund
will
issue
or
redeem
Creation
Units
in
return
for
a
basket
of
assets
that
the
Fund
specifies
each
day.
Shares
are
listed
on
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange Arca
("NYSE
Arca") and
are
publicly
traded.
If an
investor buys
or
sells
Fund
shares
on
the
secondary
market, the
investor will
pay
or
receive
the
market
price,
which
may
be
higher
or
lower
than
NAV. The
investor's transaction
will
be
priced
at
NAV
if the
investor purchases
or
redeems
Fund
shares
in
Creation
Units.
Authorized
Participants
purchasing
and
redeeming
Creation
Units
may
pay
a
purchase
transaction
fee
and
a
redemption
transaction
fee
directly
to
the
Fund's
Administrator
to
offset
transfer
and
other
transaction
costs
associated
with
the
issuance
and
redemption
of
Creation
Units,
including
Creation
Units
for
cash.
Additionally,
a
portion
of
the
transaction
fee
is
used
to
offset
transactional
costs
typically
accrued
in
the
Fund's
cus-
tody
expenses
directly
related
to
the
issuance
and
redemption
of
Creation
Units.
An
additional
variable
fee
may
be
charged
for
certain
transactions.
Such
fees
would
be
included
in
the
re-
ceivable
for
capital
shares
issued
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities
if
they
are
outstanding
as
of

Federal
Income
Taxes:
It
is
the
Fund’s
intention
to
continue
to
qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company
and
distribute
all
of
its
taxable
and
tax
exempt income.
Accordingly,
no
provision
for
federal
income
taxes
is
required
in
the
finan-
cial
statements. 
The
Fund
may
be
subject
to
taxes
imposed
by
countries
in
which
it
invests.
Such
taxes
are
generally
based
on
income
and/
or
capital
gains
earned
or
repatriated.
Taxes
are
accrued
based
on
net
investment
income,
net
realized
gains
and
net
unreal-
ized
appreciation
as
such
income
and/or
gains
are
earned.
Taxes
may
also
be
based
on
transactions
in
foreign
currency
and
are
accrued
based
on
the
value
of
investments
denominated
in
such
currency.
FASB
ASC
740-10,
“Income
Taxes—Overall”,
sets
forth
a
minimum
threshold
for
financial
statement
recognition
of
the
benefit
of
a
tax
position
taken
or
expected
to
be
taken
in
a
tax
return.
Management
has
concluded
there
are
no
significant
uncertain
tax
positions
that
would
require
recognition
in
the
financial
statements.
If
applicable,
the
Fund
recognizes
inter-
est
accrued
related
to
unrecognized
tax
benefits
in
“Interest
Expense”
and
penalties
in
“Other
Expenses”
in
the
Statement
of
Operations.
The
Fund
files
tax
returns
with
the
U.S.
Internal
Revenue
Service,
New
York
and
various
states.
The
tax
year
ended
September
30,
2023 remains
subject
to
examination
by
taxing
authorities.
The
tax
character
of
distributions
paid
may
differ
from
the
character
of
distributions
shown
for
GAAP
purposes
due
to
short-term
capital
gains
being
treated
as
ordinary
income
for
tax
purposes.
The
tax
character
of
distributions
paid
during
fiscal
year 2023
was
as
follows: 
The
amount
and
character
of
income
and
gains
to
be
distrib-
uted
are
determined
in
accordance
with
income
tax
regulations
which
may
differ
from
GAAP.
These
book/tax
differences
are
either
considered
temporary
or
permanent
in
nature. 
Temporary
differences
are
attributable
to
differing
book
and
tax
treatments
for
the
timing
of
the
recognition
of
gains
(loss-
es)
on
certain
investment
transactions
and
the
timing
of
the
deductibility
of
certain
expenses. 
The
Fund
had
no
permanent
differences
causing
reclassifica-
tions
among
the
components
of
net
assets
for
the
year ended
September
30,
2023. 
At
September
30,
2023,
the
components
of
distributable
earn-
ings
for
the
Fund
on
a
tax
basis
were
as
follows: 
At
September
30,
2023,
the
Fund
had
available
for
fed-
eral
income
tax
purposes
unused
short-term
capital
losses
of $49,706 that
do
not
have
an
expiration
date. 
To
the
extent
that
capital
loss
carryforwards
are
used
to
offset
any
future
capital
gains
realized,
no
capital
gains
tax
liability
will
be
incurred
by
the
Fund
for
gains
realized
and
not
distrib-
uted.
To
the
extent
that
capital
gains
are
offset,
such
gains
will
not
be
distributed
to
the
shareholders. 
I.
Principal
Risks:
Market
Risk:
An
investment
in
the
Fund
is
based
on
the
values
of
the
Fund’s
investments,
which
may
change
due
to
economic
and
other
events
that
affect
markets
generally,
as
well
as
those
that
affect
particular
regions,
countries,
industries,
companies
or
governments.
The
risks
associated
with
these
developments
may
be
magnified
if
social,
political,
economic
and
other
conditions
and
events
(such
as
war,
natural
disasters,
health
emergencies
(e.g.,
epidemics
and
pandemics),
terrorism,
conflicts,
social
unrest,
recessions,
inflation,
rapid
interest
rate
changes
and
supply
chain
disruptions)
adversely
interrupt
the
global
economy
and
financial
markets.
It
is
difficult
to
predict
when
events
affecting
the
U.S.
or
global
financial
markets
may
occur,
the
effects
that
such
events
may
have
and
the
duration
of
those
effects
(which
may
last
for
extended
periods).
These
events
may
negatively
impact
broad
segments
of
businesses
and
populations
and
have
a
significant
and
rapid
negative
impact
on
the
performance
of
the
Fund’s
investments,
adversely
affect
and
increase
the
volatility
of
the
Fund’s
share
price
and
exacerbate
pre-existing
risks
to
the
Fund.  The

Risk:
Only
an
authorized
participant
may
engage
in
creation
or
redemption
transactions
directly
with
the
Fund.
The
Fund
has
a
limited
number
of
intermediaries
that
act
as
authorized
participants
and
none
of
these
authorized
participants
is
or
will
be
obligated
to
engage
in
creation
or
redemption
transactions.
To
the
extent
that
these
intermediaries
exit
the
business
or
are
unable
to
or
choose
not
to
proceed
with
creation
and/or
redemption
orders
with
respect
to
the
Fund
and
no
other
authorized
participant
creates
or
redeems,
shares
may
trade
at
a
discount
to
NAV
and
possibly
face
trading
halts
and/or
delisting. 
Cash
Transactions
Risk:
Unlike
certain
ETFs,
the
Fund
may
effect
creations
and
redemptions
in
cash
or
partially
in
cash.
Therefore,
it
may
be
required
to
sell
portfolio
securities
and
subsequently
recognize
gains
on
such
sales
that
the
Fund
might
not
have
recognized
if
it
were
to
distribute
portfolio
securities
in-kind.
As
such,
investments
in
shares
may
be
less
tax-efficient
than
an
investment
in
an
ETF
that
distributes
portfolio
securities
entirely
in-kind. 
Trading
Risk:
The
market
prices
of
shares
are
expected
to
fluctuate,
in
some
cases
materially,
in
response
to
changes
in
the
Fund’s
NAV,
the
intra-day
value
of
the
Fund’s
holdings,
and
supply
and
demand
for
shares.
The
Adviser
cannot
predict
whether
shares
will
trade
above,
below
or
at
their
NAV.
Disrup-
tions
to
creations
and
redemptions,
the
existence
of
significant
market
volatility
or
potential
lack
of
an
active
trading
market
for
the
shares
(including
through
a
trading
halt),
as
well
as
oth-
er
factors,
may
result
in
the
shares
trading
significantly
above
(at
a
premium)
or
below
(at
a
discount)
to
NAV
or
to
the
intraday
value
of
the
Fund’s
holdings.
Buying
or
selling
shares
in
the
secondary
market
may
require
paying
brokerage
com-
missions
or
other
charges
imposed
by
brokers
as
determined
by
that
broker.
Brokerage
commissions
are
often
a
fixed
amount
and
may
be
a
significant
proportional
cost
when
seeking
to
buy
or
sell
relatively
small
amounts
of
shares.
In
addition,
the
market
price
of
shares,
like
the
price
of
any
exchange-traded
security,
includes
a
“bid-ask
spread”
charged
by
the
market
makers
or
other
participants
that
trade
the
particular
security.
The
spread
of the
Fund’s
shares
varies
over
time
based
on
the
Fund’s
trading
volume
and
market
liquidity
and
may
increase
if
the
Fund’s
trading
volume,
the
spread
of
the
Fund’s
underlying
securities,
or
market
liquidity
decrease. 
Large
Shareholder
Transaction
Risk:
The
Fund
may
experience
adverse
effects
when
certain
shareholders
purchase
or
redeem
large
amounts
of
shares
of the
Fund.
In
addition,
a
third
party
investor,
the
Adviser
or
an
affiliate
of
the
Adviser,
an
authorized
participant,
a
lead
market
maker,
or
another
entity
(i.e.,
a
seed
investor)
may
invest
in
the
Fund
and
hold
its
investment
solely
to
facilitate
commencement
of
the
Fund
or
to
facilitate
the
Fund’s
achieving
a
specified
size
or
scale.
Any
such
investment
may
be
held
for
a
limited
period
of
time.
There
can
be
no
assurance
that
any
large
shareholder
would
not
redeem
its
investment,
that
the
size
of
the
Fund
would
be
maintained
at
such
levels
or
that
the
Fund
would
continue
to
meet
applicable
listing
requirements.
Such
larger
than
normal
redemptions
may
cause
the
Fund
to
sell
portfolio
securities
at
times
when
it
would
not
otherwise
do
so,
which
may
negative-
ly
impact
the
Fund’s
NAV
and
liquidity.
Similarly,
large
Fund
share
purchases
may
adversely
affect the
Fund’s
performance
to
the
extent
that the
Fund
is
delayed
in
investing
new
cash
and
is
required
to
maintain
a
larger
cash
position
than
it
ordinarily
would.
These
transactions
may
also
accelerate
the
realization
of
taxable
income
to
shareholders
if
such
sales
of
investments
resulted
in
gains
and
may
also
increase
transaction
costs.
In
addition,
a
large
redemption
could
result
in the
Fund’s
current
expenses
being
allocated
over
a
smaller
asset
base,
leading
to
an
increase
in the
Fund’s
expense
ratio.
Although
large
shareholder
transactions
may
be
more
frequent
under
certain
circumstanc-
es, the
Fund
is
generally
subject
to
the
risk
that
shareholders
can
purchase
or
redeem
a
significant
percentage
of
Fund
shares
at
any
time.
In
addition,
transactions
by
large
shareholders
may
account
for
a
large
percentage
of
the
trading
volume
on
NYSE
Arca
and
may,
therefore,
have
a
material
upward
or
downward
effect
on
the
market
price
of
the
shares. 
LIBOR
Discontinuance
or
Unavailability
Risk:
 The
Lon-
don
Interbank
Offering
Rate
(“LIBOR”)
was
a
leading
floating
rate
benchmark
used
in
loans,
notes,
derivatives
and
other
instruments
or
investments.
As
a
result
of
benchmark
reforms,
publication
of
most
LIBOR
settings
has
ceased.
Some
LIBOR
settings
continue
to
be
published
but
only
on
a
temporary,
synthetic
and
non-representative
basis.
Regulated
entities
have
generally
ceased
entering
into
new
LIBOR
contracts
in
con-
nection
with
regulatory
guidance
or
prohibitions.
Public
and
private
sector
actors
have
worked
to
establish
new
or
alternative

Stanley
ETF
Trust
reference
rates
to
be
used
in
place
of
LIBOR.
There
is
no
assur-
ance
that
the
composition
or
characteristics
of
any
such
new
or
alternative
reference
rate
will
be
similar
to
or
produce
the
same
value
or
economic
equivalence
as
LIBOR
or
that
it
will
have
the
same
volume
or
liquidity
as
did
LIBOR
,
which
may
affect
the
value
or
liquidity
or
return
on
certain
of
the
Fund’s
invest-
ments
and
result
in
costs
incurred
in
connection
with
closing
out
positions
and
entering
into
new
trades.
Neither
the
effect
of
the
LIBOR
transition
process
nor
its
ultimate
success
can
yet
be
known.
The
transition
process
might
lead
to
increased
volatility
and
illiquidity
in
markets
for,
and
reduce
the
effectiveness
of
hedges
placed
against,
instru-
ments
whose
terms
currently
include
(or
previously
included)
LIBOR.
While
some
LIBOR-based
instruments
contemplated
a
scenario
where
LIBOR
is
no
longer
available
by
providing
for
an
alternative
rate-setting
methodology,
there
may
be
significant
uncertainty
regarding
the
effectiveness
of
any
such
alternative
methodologies
to
replicate
or
replace
LIBOR.
Some
of
the
Fund’s
investments
may
be
so-called
“tough
legacy”
LIBOR
instruments
which
may
not
have
effective
alternative
rate-setting
provisions
or
may
involve
counterparties
who
are
unwilling
to
add
or
exercise
rights
under
alternative
rate-set-
ting
provisions
in
such
instruments.
On
March
15,
2022,
the
Adjustable
Interest
Rate
(LIBOR)
Act
was
signed
into
law.
This
law
provides
a
statutory
fallback
mechanism
on
a
nationwide
basis
to
replace
U.S.
Dollar
LIBOR
with
a
benchmark
rate
that
is
selected
by
the
Board
of
Governors
of
the
Federal
Re-
serve
System
based
on
the
Secured
Overnight
Financing
Rate
(“SOFR”)
for
tough
legacy
contracts.
On
February
27,
2023,
the
final
rule
in
connection
with
this
law
became
effective,
es-
tablishing
benchmark
replacements
based
on
SOFR
and
Term
SOFR
(a
forward-looking
measurement
of
market
expectations
of
SOFR
implied
from
certain
derivatives
markets)
for
applica-
ble
tough
legacy
contracts
governed
by
U.S.
law.
In
addition,
the
FCA
has
announced
that
it
will
require
the
publication
of
the
one-month,
three-month
and
six-month
U.S.
Dollar
LI-
BOR
settings
on
the
basis
of
a
changed
methodology
(known
as
“synthetic
LIBOR”),
after
June
30,
2023
through
at
least
September
30,
2024,
addressing
non-U.S.
law
governed
U.S.
Dollar
LIBOR
instruments,
but
this
synthetic
LIBOR
will
be
designated
by
the
FCA
as
unrepresentative
of
the
underlying
market
that
it
seeks
to
measure
and
will
be
solely
available
for
use
in
legacy
transactions.
The
transition
of
investments
from
LIBOR
to
a
new
or
replacement
rate
as
a
result
of
amendment,
application
of
existing
fallbacks,
statutory
requirements,
the
ap-
plication
of
synthetic
LIBOR
or
otherwise
may
also
result
in
a
reduction
in
the
value
of
certain
instruments
held
by
the
Fund
or
a
reduction
in
the
effectiveness
of
related
Fund
transactions
such
as
hedges.
In
addition,
a
liquid
market
for
newly-issued
instruments
that
use
a
reference
rate
other
than
LIBOR
is
still
developing.
There
may
also
be
challenges
for
the
Fund
to
enter
into
hedging
transactions
against
such
newly-issued
instru-
ments
until
a
market
for
such
hedging
transactions
more
fully
develops.
All
of
the
aforementioned
may
adversely
affect
the
Fund’s
investments
(including
their
volatility,
value
and
liquidi-
ty)
and,
as
a
result,
the
performance
or
NAV.
J.
Other:
At
September
30,
2023,
the
Fund
had
record
own-
ers
of
10%
or
greater,
which
are
related
parties
of
the
Fund.
In-
vestment
activities
of
these

could
have
a
material
impact
on
the
Fund.
The
aggregate
percentage
of
such
owners
was

Opinion
on
the
Financial
Statements
We
have
audited
the
accompanying
statement
of
assets
and
liabilities
of
Calvert
Ultra
Short
Investment
Grade
ETF
(the
“Fund”)
(one
of
the
funds
constituting
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust
(the
“Trust”)),
including
the
portfolio
of
investments,
as
of
September
30,
2023,
and
the
related
statements
of
operations
and
changes
in
net
assets
and
the
financial
highlights
for
the
period
from
January
30,
2023
(commencement
of
operations)
through
September
30,
2023,
and
the
related
notes
(collectively
referred
to
as
the
“financial
statements”).
In
our
opinion,
the
financial
statements
present
fairly,
in
all
material
respects,
the
financial
position
of
the
Fund
(one
of
the
funds
constituting
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust)
at
September
30,
2023,
and
the
results
of
its
operations,
the
changes
in
its
net
assets
and
its
financial
highlights
for
the
period
from
January
30,
2023
(commencement
of
operations)
through
September
30,
2023,
in
conformity
with
U.S.
generally
accepted
accounting
principles.
Basis
for
Opinion
These
financial
statements
are
the
responsibility
of
the
Trust’s
management.
Our
responsibility
is
to
express
an
opinion
on
the
Fund’s
financial
statements
based
on
our
audit.
We
are
a
public
accounting
firm
registered
with
the
Public
Company
Accounting
Oversight
Board
(United
States)
(“PCAOB”)
and
are
required
to
be
independent
with
respect
to
the
Trust
in
accordance
with
the
U.S.
federal
securities
laws
and
the
applicable
rules
and
regulations
of
the
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
and
the
PCAOB.
We
conducted
our
audit
in
accordance
with
the
standards
of
the
PCAOB.
Those
standards
require
that
we
plan
and
perform
the
audit
to
obtain
reasonable
assurance
about
whether
the
financial
statements
are
free
of
material
misstatement,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud.
The
Trust
is
not
required
to
have,
nor
were
we
engaged
to
perform,
an
audit
of
the
Trust’s
internal
control
over
financial
reporting.
As
part
of
our
audit,
we
are
required
to
obtain
an
understanding
of
internal
control
over
financial
reporting,
but
not
for
the
purpose
of
expressing
an
opinion
on
the
effectiveness
of
the
Trust’s
internal
control
over
financial
reporting.
Accordingly,
we
express
no
such
opinion.
Our
audit
included
performing
procedures
to
assess
the
risks
of
material
misstatement
of
the
financial
statements,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud,
and
performing
procedures
that
respond
to
those
risks.
Such
procedures
included
examining,
on
a
test
basis,
evidence
regarding
the
amounts
and
disclosures
in
the
financial
statements.
Our
procedures
included
confirmation
of
securities
owned
as
of
September
30,
2023,
by
correspondence
with
the
custodian,
brokers
and
others;
when
replies
were
not
received
from
brokers
and
others,
we
performed
other
auditing
procedures.
Our
audit
also
included
evaluating
the
accounting
principles
used
and
significant
estimates
made
by
management,
as
well
as
evaluating
the
overall
presentation
of
the
financial
statements.
We
believe
that
our
audit
provides
a
reasonable
basis
for
our
opinion.
We
have
served
as
the
auditor
of
one
or
more
Morgan
Stanley
investment
companies
since
2000.

Expense
Example
(unaudited)
Calvert
US
Large-Cap
Core
Responsible
Index
ETF
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust
As
a
shareholder
of
the
Fund,
you
incur
two
types
of
costs:
(1)
transactional
costs;
and
(2)
ongoing
costs,
which
may
include man-
agement
fees,
and
distribution
and
shareholder
services
fees.
This
example
is
intended
to
help
you
understand
your
ongoing
costs
(in
dollars)
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
to
compare
these
costs
with
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
other
funds.
This
example
is
based
on
an
investment
of
$1,000
invested
at
the
beginning
of
the
six-month
period
ended
September
30,
2023 and
held
for
the
entire
six-month
period.
Actual
Expenses
The
table
below
provides
information
about
actual
account
values
and
actual
expenses.
You
may
use
the
information
in
this
table,
together
with
the
amount
you
invested,
to
estimate
the
expenses
that
you
paid
over
the
period.
Simply
divide
your
account
value
by
$1,000
(for
example,
an
$8,600
account
value
divided
by
$1,000
=
8.6),
then
multiply
the
result
by
the
number
in
the
table
under
the
heading
entitled
“Actual
Expenses
Paid
During
Period”
to
estimate
the
expenses
you
paid
on
your
account
during
this
period.
Hypothetical Example
for
Comparison
Purposes
The
table
below
provides
information
about
hypothetical
account
values
and
hypothetical
expenses
based
on
the
Fund’s
actual
expense
ratio
and
an
assumed
rate
of
return
of
5%
per
year
before
expenses,
which
is
not
the
Fund’s
actual
return.
The
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
may
not
be
used
to
estimate
the
actual
ending
account
balance
or
expenses
you
paid
for
the
period.
You
may
use
this
information
to
compare
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
other
funds.
To
do
so,
compare
this
5%
hypothetical
example
with
the
5%
hypothetical
examples
that
appear
in
the
shareholder
reports
of
the
other
funds. 
Please
note
that
the
expenses
shown
in
the
table
are
meant
to
highlight
your
ongoing
costs
only
and
do
not
reflect
any
transactional
costs,
such
as
sales
charges
(loads).
Therefore,
the
information
for
each
class
in
the
table
is
useful
in
comparing
ongoing
costs
only,
and
will
not
help
you
determine
the
relative
total
costs
of
owning
different
funds.
In
addition,
if
these
transactional
costs
were
included,
your
costs
would
have
been
higher.

Annual

Investment
Overview
(unaudited)
Calvert
US
Large-Cap
Core
Responsible
Index
ETF
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust
Economic
and
Market
Conditions
For
U.S.
equity
investors,
the
8-month
period
ended
September
30,
2023,
was
a
roller-coaster
ride,
driven
largely
by
shifting
perceptions
of
whether
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(the
Fed)
could
bring
the
world’s
largest
economy
in
for
a
soft
landing,
and
changing
expectations
of
how
long
interest
rates
might
remain
high.
As
the
period
opened,
U.S.
stocks
were
in
the
midst
of
a
rally
that
lasted
through
July
2023.
The
initial
tailwind
was
ChatGPT,
an
artificial
intelligence
(AI)
application
that
led
investors
to
perceive
AI
might
become
the
next
big
innovation
to
drive
the
information
technology
(IT)
sector.
As
a
result,
IT
-
one
of
the
worst-performing
sectors
in
2022
-
became
the
standout
sector
during
the
first
half
of
2023.
Earlier
recession
fears
that
had
weighed
on
stock
prices
receded
as
many
inves-
tors
came
around
to
the
view
that
the
U.S.
economy
was
doing
surprisingly
well.
But
in
the
final
two
months
of
the
period,
the
bond
market
halted
the
stock
market’s
momentum.
As
it
became
clear
the
Fed
would
keep
interest
rates
higher
for
longer
than
investors
had
anticipated
just
a
few
months
earlier,
longer
term
bond
rates
rose.
Given
the
potential
for
relatively
attractive
returns
with
lower
risk
than
stocks,
many
investors
shifted
from
equity
assets
to
bonds,
and
stock
prices
ended
on
a
down
note
as
the
period
came
to
a
close.
For
the
period
as
a
whole,
however,
the
August-September
stock
market
retreat
did
not
totally
erase
previous
gains,
and
the
Russell
1000®
Index,
a
measure
of
U.S.
large-cap
stocks,
returned
a
respectable
7.55%.
Fund
Performance
For
the
8-month
period
from
inception
on
January
30,
2023,
through
September
30,
2023,
Calvert
US
Large-Cap
Core
Re-
sponsible
Index
ETF
(the
Fund)
returned
6.85%
based
on
net
asset
value
(NAV)
and
reinvestment
of
distributions
per
share,
net
of
fees.
The
Fund
underperformed
its
primary
benchmark,
the
Russell
1000®
Index
(the
Index),
which
returned
7.55%
and
underperformed
its
secondary
benchmark,
the
Calvert
US
Large-Cap
Core
Responsible
Index
(the
Calvert
Index),
which
returned
6.99%
during
the
period.
The
Fund’s
underperformance
versus
the
Calvert
Index
was
due
to
Fund
expenses
and
fees,
which
the
Calvert
Index
does
not
incur.
Of
the
11
market
sectors
held
by
the
Fund,
communication
services,
consumer
discretionary,
energy,
industrials,
and
infor-
mation
technology
(IT)
delivered
positive
returns
during
the
period.
The
strongest-performing
sectors
were
IT,
energy,
and
consumer
discretionary.
The
weakest-performing
sectors
were
utilities,
real
estate,
and
financials.

Fund
performance
versus
the
Index
included
stock
selections
and
an
underweight
position
in
the
communi-
cation
services
sector,
as
well
as
stock
selections
and
overweight
positions
in
the
financials
and
health
care
sectors.
In
the
communication
services
sector,
not
owning
Index
po-
sition
Meta
Platforms,
Inc.
(Meta)
-
the
social
media
compa-
ny
behind
Facebook,
Instagram,
and
Messenger
-
detracted
from
returns
relative
to
the
Index
during
the
period.
Meta’s
stock
price
doubled
during
the
period
as
advertising
revenues
rebounded
on
improved
ad
targeting,
while
profit
margins
exceeded
expectations
due
to
more
rational
spending
on
lon-
ger-term
initiatives.
In
the
financials
sector,
not
owning
Index
position
Berk-
shire
Hathaway,
Inc.
(Berkshire
Hathaway)
detracted
from
Index-relative
returns.
Berkshire
Hathaway,
Warren
Buffet’s
Nebraska-based
multinational
conglomerate,
posted
an
all-time
high
for
its
stock
price
in
September
2023,
as
its
core
insurance
businesses
-
including
wholly-owned
subsidiary
GEICO
-
performed
strongly
and
many
of
its
widely
diversified
holdings
delivered
robust
earnings
during
the
period
as
well.
In
contrast,
contributors
to
Fund
performance
versus
the
Index
included
an
overweight
position
in
the
IT
sector,
the
best-per-
forming
sector
within
the
Index
and
the
Fund
during
the
period;
an
underweight
position
in
the
real
estate
sector,
which
delivered
negative
returns
as
property
sales
were
hampered
by
rising
mortgage
rates
and
companies
cut
back
on
office
space
after
the
pandemic;
and
an
underweight
position
in
the
energy
sector.
In
the
IT
sector,
relative
performance
benefited
from
the
Fund’s
overweight
position
in
semiconductor
firm
NVIDIA
Corp.
(NVIDIA),
whose
stock
price
more
than
doubled
during
the
period.
NVIDIA’s
strong
stock
performance
was
driven
by
increased
demand
for
its
high-end
graphics
processing
units
in
the
burgeoning
AI,
industry.

Security
Valuation:
(1)
An
equity
portfolio
security
list-
ed
or
traded
on
an
exchange
is
valued
at
its
latest
reported
sales
price
(or
at
the
exchange
official
closing
price
if
such
exchange
reports
an
official
closing
price),
and
if
there
were
no
sales
on
a
given
day
and
if
there
is
no
official
ex-
change
closing
price
for
that
day,
the
security
is
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
last
reported
bid
and
asked
prices
if
such
bid
and
asked
prices
are
available
on
the
relevant
ex-
changes.
If
only
bid
prices
are
available
then
the
latest
bid
price
may
be
used.
Listed
equity
securities
not
traded
on
the
valuation
date
with
no
reported
bid
and
asked
prices
available
on
the
exchange
are
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
current
bid
and
asked
prices
obtained
from
one
or
more
reputable
brokers/dealers.
In
cases
where
a
securi-
ty
is
traded
on
more
than
one
exchange,
the
security
is
valued
on
the
exchange
designated
as
the
primary
market;
(2)
all
other
equity
portfolio
securities
for
which
over-the-
counter
(“OTC”)
market
quotations
are
readily
available
are
valued
at
the
latest
reported
sales
price
(or
at
the
mar-
ket
official
closing
price
if
such
market
reports
an
official
closing
price),
and
if
there
was
no
trading
in
the
security
on
a
given
day
and
if
there
is
no
official
closing
price
from
relevant
markets
for
that
day,
the
security
is
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
last
reported
bid
and
asked
prices
if
such
bid
and
asked
prices
are
available
on
the
rel-
evant
markets.
An
unlisted
equity
security
that
does
not
trade
on
the
valuation
date
and
for
which
bid
and
asked
prices
from
the
relevant
markets
are
unavailable
is
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
current
bid
and
asked
prices
obtained
from
one
or
more
reputable
brokers/dealers;
(3)
fixed
income
securities
may
be
valued
by
an
outside
pricing
service/vendor
approved
by
the
Trust’s
Board
of
Trustees
(the
“Trustees”).
The
pricing
service/vendor
may
employ
a
pricing
model
that
takes
into
account,
among
other
things,
bids,
yield
spreads
and/or
other
market
data
and
specific
security
characteristics.
If
Morgan
Stanley
Investment
Management
Inc.
(the
“Adviser”)
a
whol-
ly-owned
subsidiary
of
Morgan
Stanley,
determines
that
the
price
provided
by
the
outside
pricing
service/vendor
or
exchange
does
not
reflect
the
security’s
fair
value
or
is
unable
to
provide
a
price,
prices
from
brokers
or
dealers
may
also
be
utilized.
In
these
circumstances,
the
value
of
the
security
will
be
the
mean
of
bid
and
asked
prices
obtained
from
reputable brokers/dealers;
(4)
when
market
quotations
are
not
readily
available,
as
defined
by
Rule
2a-5
under
the
Act,
including
circumstances
under
which
the
Adviser
determines
that
the
closing
price,
last
sale
price
or
the
mean
between
the
last
reported
bid
and
asked
prices
are
not
reflective
of
a

value,
port-

are

at
their
fair

as
determined
in
good
faith
under
procedures
established

supervision
of
the

are
valued
at
the

value
(“NAV”)
as
of
the

day.
In
connection
with
Rule
2a-5
of
the
Act,
the
Trust-
ees
have
designated
the
Trust's
Adviser
as
its
valuation
designee.
The
valuation
designee
has
responsibility
for
determining
fair
value
and
to
make
the
actual
calculations
pursuant
to
the
fair
valuation
methodologies
previously
approved
by
the
Trustees.
Under
procedures
approved
by
the
Trustees,
the
Trust’s
Adviser
has
formed
a
Valuation
Committee
whose
members
are
approved
by
the
Trustees.
The
Valuation
Committee
provides
administration
and
oversight
of
the
Trust’s
valuation
policies
and
procedures,
which
are
reviewed
at
least
annually
by
the
Trustees.
These
procedures
allow
the Trust
to
utilize
independent

from

and
financial

and
other
market
sources

Fair
Value
Measurement:
Financial
Accounting
Stan-
dards
Board
(“FASB”)
Accounting
Standards
Codifica-
tion
TM
("ASC"),
“Fair
Value
Measurement”
(“ASC
820”),
defines
fair
value
as
the
price
that
would
be
received
to
sell
an
asset
or
pay to
transfer
a
liability
in
an orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measure-
ment
date. ASC
820
establishes
a
three tier
hierarchy
to
distinguish
between
(1)
inputs
that
reflect
the
assump-
tions
market
participants
would
use
in
valuing
an
asset
or
liability
developed
based
on
market
data
obtained
from
sources
independent
of
the
reporting
entity
(observable
inputs)
and
(2)
inputs
that
reflect
the
reporting
entity’s
own
assumptions
about
the
assumptions
market
partici-
pants
would
use
in
valuing
an
asset
or
liability
developed
based
on
the
best
information
available
in
the
circum-
stances
(unobservable
inputs)
and
to
establish
classifica-
tion
of
fair
value
measurements
for
disclosure
purposes.
Various
inputs
are
used
in
determining
the
value
of
the
Fund’s
investments.
The
inputs
are
summarized
in
the
three
broad
levels
listed
below:
Level
1
unadjusted
quoted
prices
in
active
markets
for
identical
investments.
Level
2
-
other
significant
observable
inputs
(includ-
ing
quoted
prices
for
similar
investments,
interest
rates,
prepayment
speeds,
credit
risk,
etc.)
 Level
3
-
significant
unobservable
inputs
including
the
Fund’s
own
assumptions
in
determin-
ing
the
fair
value
of
investments.
Factors
considered
in
making
this
determination
may
include,
but
are
not
limited
to,
infor-
mation
obtained
by
contacting
the
issuer,
analysts,
or
the
appropriate
stock
exchange
(for
exchange-traded
securities),
analysis
of
the
issuer’s
financial
statements
or
other
available
documents
and,
if
necessary,
available
information
concerning
other
securities
in
similar
circumstances.
The
inputs
or
methodology
used
for
valuing
securities
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
associated
with
investing
in
those
securities
and
the
determination
of
the
significance
of
a
particular
input
to
the
fair
value
mea-
surement
in
its
entirety
requires
judgment
and
considers
factors
specific
to
each
security. 
The
following
is
a
summary
of
the
inputs
used
to
value
the
Fund's
investments
as
of
September
30,
2023:
Transfers
between
investment
levels
may
occur
as
the
markets
fluctuate
and/or
the
availability
of
data
used
in
an
investment’s
valuation
changes. 
3.
Indemnifications:
The Trust
enters
into
contracts
that
contain
a
variety
of
indemnification
clauses.
The
Trust’s
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
un-
known
as
this
would
involve
future
claims
that
may
be
made
against
the
Fund
that
have
not yet
occurred. 
4.
Dividends
and
Distributions
to
Shareholders: 
Divi-
dends
and
distributions
to
shareholders
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Dividends
from
net
investment
in-
come,
if
any,
are
declared
and
paid
quarterly.
Net
realized
capital
gains,
if
any,
are
distributed
at
least
annually.
5.
Security
Transactions,
Income
and
Expenses:
Security
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
the
trade
date
(date
the
order
to
buy
or
sell
is
executed).
Realized
gains
and
losses
on
the
sale
of
investment
securities
are
deter-
mined
on
the
specific
identified
cost
method.
Dividend
income
and
other
distributions
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date
(except
for
certain
foreign
dividends
which
may
be
recorded
as
soon
as
the
Fund
is
informed
of
such
dividends)
net
of
applicable
withholding
taxes.
Non-cash
dividends
received
in
the
form
of
stock,
if
any,
are
recognized
on
the
ex-dividend
date
and
recorded
as
non-cash
dividend
at
fair
value.

C.
Distribution
and
Shareholder Services
Plan:
The
Trustees
have
adopted
a
distribution
and
services
plan
("Plan")
pursuant
Rule
12b-1
under the
Act. 
Under the
Plan,
the
Fund
is
authorized
to
pay
distribution
fees
in
connection
with
the
sale
of
its
shares
and
pay
service
fees
in
connection
with
the
provision
of
ongoing

to
shareholders
of
the
Fund
and
the
maintenance
of
shareholder
accounts
in
an
amount
up
to
0.25%
of
its
average
daily
net
assets.
No
Rule
12b-1
fees
are
currently
paid
by
the
Fund
and
there
are
no
current
plans
to
impose
these
fees.
D.
Dividend
Disbursing
and
Transfer
Agent:
The
Trust’s
dividend
disbursing
and
transfer
agent
is
JPMorgan
Chase
Bank,
N.A.
("JPMorgan").
E.
Custodian
and
Administrator:
JPMorgan also
serves
as
Custodian
and
Administrator for
the
Trust in
accordance
with
a
Custodian
and
Administration Agreement.
F.
Issuance
and
Redemption
of
Fund
Shares:
The
Fund
is
an
exchange-traded
fund
or
ETF.
Individual
Fund
shares
may
only
be
purchased
and
sold
on
a
national
securi-
ties
exchange
through
a
broker-dealer
and
investors
may
pay
a
commission
to
such
broker-dealers
in
connection
with
their
purchase
or
sale.
The
price
of
Fund
shares
is
based
on
market
price,
and
because
ETF
shares
trade
at
market
prices
rather
than
NAV,
shares
may
trade
at
a
price
greater
than
NAV
(a
premium)
or
less
than
NAV
(a
discount). 
The
Fund
will
only
issue
or
redeem
shares
aggregated
into
blocks
of 50,000
shares
or
multiples
thereof
(“Creation
Units”)
to
Authorized
Participants
who
have
entered
into
agreements
with
the
Funds’
Distributor.
An
Authorized
Participant
is
either
(1)
a
“Participating
Party,”
(i.e.,
a
broker-dealer
or
other
participant
in
the
clearing
process
of
the
Continuous
Net
Settlement
System
of
the
National
Securities
Clearing
Corpo-
ration)
(“Clearing
Process”),
or
(2)
a
participant
of
Depository
Trust
Company (“DTC
Participant”),
and,
in
each
case,
must
have
executed
an
agreement
(“Participation
Agreement”)
with
the
Distributor
with
respect
to
creations
and
redemptions
of
Creation
Units.
The
Fund
will
issue
or
redeem
Creation
Units
in
return
for
a
basket
of
assets
that
the
Fund
specifies
each
day.
Shares
are
listed
on
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange Arca
("NYSE
Arca") and
are
publicly
traded.
If an
investor buys
or
sells
Fund
shares
on
the
secondary
market, the
investor will
pay
or
receive
the
market
price,
which
may
be
higher
or
lower
than
NAV. The
investor's transaction
will
be
priced
at
NAV
if the
investor purchases
or
redeems
Fund
shares
in
Creation
Units.
Authorized
Participants
purchasing
and
redeeming
Creation
Units
may
pay
a
purchase
transaction
fee
and
a
redemption
transaction
fee
directly
to
the
Fund's
Administrator
to
offset
transfer
and
other
transaction
costs
associated
with
the
issuance
and
redemption
of
Creation
Units,
including
Creation
Units
for
cash.
Additionally,
a
portion
of
the
transaction
fee
is
used
to
offset
transactional
costs
typically
accrued
in
the
Fund's
cus-
tody
expenses
directly
related
to
the
issuance
and
redemption
of
Creation
Units.
An
additional
variable
fee
may
be
charged
for
certain
transactions.
Such
fees
would
be
included
in
the
re-
ceivable
for
capital
shares
issued
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities
if
they
are
outstanding
as
of
year-
end. Transaction
fees
assessed
during
the
period
are
included
in
the
proceeds
from
shares
issued
on
the
Statements
of
Changes
in
Net
Assets.

Federal
Income
Taxes:
It
is
the
Fund’s
intention
to
continue
to
qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company
and
distribute
all
of
its
taxable
and
tax
exempt income.
Accordingly,
no
provision
for
federal
income
taxes
is
required
in
the
finan-
cial
statements. 
The
Fund
may
be
subject
to
taxes
imposed
by
countries
in
which
it
invests.
Such
taxes
are
generally
based
on
income
and/
or
capital
gains
earned
or
repatriated.
Taxes
are
accrued
based
on
net
investment
income,
net
realized
gains
and
net
unreal-
ized
appreciation
as
such
income
and/or
gains
are
earned.
Taxes
may
also
be
based
on
transactions
in
foreign
currency
and
are
accrued
based
on
the
value
of
investments
denominated
in
such
currency.
FASB
ASC
740-10,
“Income
Taxes—Overall”,
sets
forth
a
minimum
threshold
for
financial
statement
recognition
of
the
benefit
of
a
tax
position
taken
or
expected
to
be
taken
in
a
tax
return.
Management
has
concluded
there
are
no
significant
uncertain
tax
positions
that
would
require
recognition
in
the
financial
statements.
If
applicable,
the
Fund
recognizes
inter-
est
accrued
related
to
unrecognized
tax
benefits
in
“Interest
Expense”
and
penalties
in
“Other
Expenses”
in
the
Statement
of
Operations.
The
Fund
files
tax
returns
with
the
U.S.
Internal
Revenue
Service,
New
York
and
various
states.
The
tax
year
ended
September
30,
2023 remains
subject
to
examination
by
taxing
authorities.
The
tax
character
of
distributions
paid
may
differ
from
the
character
of
distributions
shown
for
GAAP
purposes
due
to
short-term
capital
gains
being
treated
as
ordinary
income
for
tax
purposes.
The
tax
character
of
distributions
paid
during
fiscal
year 2023
was
as
follows: 
The
amount
and
character
of
income
and
gains
to
be
distrib-
uted
are
determined
in
accordance
with

regulations
which
may
differ
from
GAAP.
These

differences
are
either
considered
temporary
or
permanent
in
nature. 
Temporary
differences
are
attributable
to
differing
book
and
tax
treatments
for
the
timing
of
the
recognition
of
gains
(loss-
es)
on
certain
investment
transactions
and
the
timing
of
the
deductibility
of
certain
expenses. 
The
Fund
had
no
permanent
differences
causing
reclassifica-
tions
among
the
components
of
net
assets
for
the
year ended
September
30,
2023. 
At
September
30,
2023,
the
components
of
distributable
earn-
ings
for
the
Fund
on
a
tax
basis
were
as
follows: 
At
September
30,
2023,
the
Fund
had
available
for
fed-
eral
income
tax
purposes
unused
short-term
capital
losses
of $579,509 that
do
not
have
an
expiration
date. 
To
the
extent
that
capital
loss
carryforwards
are
used
to
offset
any
future
capital
gains
realized,
no
capital
gains
tax
liability
will
be
incurred
by
the
Fund
for
gains
realized
and
not
distrib-
uted.
To
the
extent
that
capital
gains
are
offset,
such
gains
will
not
be
distributed
to
the
shareholders.

Principal
Risks:
Market
Risk:
An
investment
in
the
Fund
is
based
on
the
values
of
the
Fund’s
investments,
which
may
change
due
to
economic
and
other
events
that
affect
markets
generally,
as
well
as
those
that
affect
particular
regions,
countries,
industries,
companies
or
governments.
The
risks
associated
with
these
developments
may
be
magnified
if
social,
political,
economic
and
other
conditions
and
events
(such
as
war,
natural
disasters,
health
emergencies
(e.g.,
epidemics
and
pandemics),
terrorism,
conflicts,
social
unrest,
recessions,
inflation,
rapid
interest
rate
changes
and
supply
chain
disruptions)
adversely
interrupt
the
global
economy
and
financial
markets.
It
is
difficult
to
predict
when
events
affecting
the
U.S.
or
global
financial
markets
may
occur,
the
effects
that
such
events
may
have
and
the
duration
of
those
effects
(which
may
last
for
extended
periods).
These
events
may
negatively
impact
broad
segments
of
businesses
and
populations
and
have
a
significant
and
rapid
negative
impact
on
the
performance
of
the
Fund’s
investments,
adversely
affect
and
increase
the
volatility
of
the
Fund’s
share
price
and
exacerbate
pre-existing
risks
to
the
Fund.  The
occurrence,
duration
and
extent
of
these
or
other
types
of
adverse
econom-
ic
and
market
conditions
and
uncertainty
over
the
long
term
cannot
be
reasonably
projected
or
estimated
at
this
time.

of

or
other
adverse
economic
or
market
developments
and
the
extent
to
which
the
associated
conditions
impact
the
Fund
and
its
investments
will
also
depend
on
other
future
developments,
which
are
highly
uncertain,
difficult
to
accurately
predict
and
subject
to
change
at
any
time.
The
financial
performance
of
the
Fund’s
invest-
ments
(and,
in
turn,
the
Fund’s
investment
results)
as
well
as
their
liquidity
may
be
adversely
affected
because
of
these
and
similar
types
of
factors
and
developments.
Tracking
Error
Risk:
Tracking
error
risk
refers
to
the
risk
that
the
Fund’s
performance
may
not
match
or
correlate
to
that
of
the
index
it
attempts
to
track,
either
on
a
daily
or
aggregate
basis.
Tracking
error
may
occur
because
of
transac-
tion
costs,
the
Fund’s
holding
of
cash,
differences
in
accrual
of
dividends,
changes
to
the
index
or
the
need
to
meet
new
or
existing
regulatory
requirements.
Factors
such
as
Fund
expens-
es,
imperfect
correlation
between
the
Fund’s
investments
and
the
index,
rounding
of
share
prices,
changes
to
the
composition
of
the
index,
regulatory
policies,
limitations
on
Fund
invest-
ments
imposed
by
Fund
diversification
and/or
concentration
policies,
high
portfolio
turnover
rate
and
the
use
of
leverage
all
contribute
to
tracking
error.
Unlike
the
Fund,
the
returns
of
the
index
are
not
reduced
by
investment
and
other
operating
expenses,
including
the
trading
costs
associated
with
imple-
menting
changes
to
its
portfolio
of
investments.
Tracking
error
risk
may
cause
the
Fund’s
performance
to
be
less
than
expected.
Tracking
error
risk
may
be
heightened
during
times
of
market
volatility,
unusual
market
conditions
or
other
abnormal
cir-
cumstances.
The
Fund
may
be
required
to
deviate
its
invest-
ments
from
the
securities
and
relative
weightings
of
the
index
to
comply
with
applicable
laws
and
regulations
or
because
of
market
restrictions
or
other
legal
reasons,
including
regulatory
limits
or
other
restrictions
on
securities
that
may
be
purchased
by
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates.
If
the
Fund
uses
a
sampling
method
of
indexing,
it
may
have
a
larger
tracking
error
than
if
it
used
a
replication
method
of
indexing.
Index
Related
Risk:
The
Fund’s
return
may
not
track
the
return
of
the
index
for
a
number
of
reasons
and
therefore
may
not
achieve
its
investment
objective.
For
example,
the
Fund
incurs
a
number
of
operating
expenses
not
applicable
to
the
index,
and
incurs
costs
in
buying
and
selling
securities,
espe-
cially
when
rebalancing
the
Fund’s
securities
holdings
to
reflect
changes
in
the
composition
of
the
index.
In
addition,
the
Fund’s
return
may
differ
from
the
return
of
the
index
because
of,
among
other
things,
pricing
differences
and
the
inability
to
purchase
certain
securities
included
in
the
underlying index
due
to
regulatory
or
other
restrictions. 
In
addition,
when
the
Fund
uses
a
representative
sampling
ap-
proach,
the
Fund
may
not
be
as
well
correlated
with
the
return
of
the
underlying
index
as
when
the
Fund
purchases
all
of
the
securities
in
the
index
in
the
proportions
in
which
they
are
rep-
resented
in
the
index.
Errors
in
the
construction
or
calculation
of
the
index
may
occur
from
time
to
time.
Any
such
errors
may
not
be
identified
and
corrected
by
the
index
provider
for
some
period
of
time,
which
may
have
an
adverse
impact
on
the
Fund
and
its
shareholders.
The
risk
that
the
Fund
may
not
track
the
performance
of
the
index
may
be
heightened
during
times
of
increased
market
volatility
or
other
unusual
market
conditions.
Authorized
Participant
Concentration
Risk:
Only
an
authorized
participant
may
engage
in
creation
or
redemption
transactions
directly
with
the
Fund.
The
Fund
has
a
limited
number
of
intermediaries
that
act
as
authorized
participants
and
none
of
these
authorized
participants
is
or
will
be
obligated
to
engage
in
creation
or
redemption
transactions.
To
the
extent
that
these
intermediaries
exit
the
business
or
are
unable
to
or
choose
not
to
proceed
with
creation
and/or
redemption
orders
with
respect
to
the
Fund
and
no
other
authorized
participant
creates
or
redeems,
shares
may
trade
at
a
discount
to
net
asset
value
(“NAV”)
and
possibly
face
trading
halts
and/or
delisting. 
Trading
Risk:
The
market
prices
of
shares
are
expected
to
fluctuate,
in
some
cases
materially,
in
response
to
changes
in
the
Fund’s
NAV,
the
intra-day
value
of
the
Fund’s
holdings,
and
supply
and
demand
for
shares.
The
Adviser
cannot
predict
whether
shares
will
trade
above,
below
or
at
their
NAV.
Disrup-
tions
to
creations
and
redemptions,
the
existence
of
significant
market
volatility
or
potential
lack
of
an
active
trading
market
for
the
shares
(including
through
a
trading
halt),
as
well
as
other
factors,
may
result
in
the
shares
trading
significantly
above
(at
a
premium)
or
below
(at
a
discount)
to
NAV
or
to
the
intraday
value
of
the
Fund’s
holdings
(and,
as
a
result,
an
investor
may
pay
more
for,
or
receive
less
than,
the
underlying
value
of
the
shares,
respectively).
Buying
or
selling
shares
in
the
secondary
market
may
require
paying
brokerage
commissions
or
other
charges
imposed
by
brokers
as
determined
by
that
broker.
Brokerage
commissions
are
often
a
fixed
amount
and
may
be
a
significant
proportional
cost
when
seeking
to
buy
or
sell
relatively
small
amounts
of
shares.
In
addition,
the
market
price
of
shares,
like
the
price
of
any
exchange-traded
security,
includes
a
“bid-ask
spread”
charged
by
the
market
makers
or
other
participants
that
trade
the
particular
security.
The
spread
of the
Fund’s
shares
varies
over
time
based
on
the
Fund’s
trad-
ing
volume
and
market
liquidity
and
may
increase
if
the
Fund’s
trading
volume,
the
spread
of
the
Fund’s
underlying
securities,
or
market
liquidity
decrease.

Morgan

ETF
Trust
Large
Shareholder
Transaction
Risk:
The
Fund
may
experience
adverse
effects
when
certain
shareholders
purchase
or
redeem
large
amounts
of
shares
of the
Fund.
In
addition,
a
third
party
investor,
the
Adviser
or
an
affiliate
of
the
Adviser,
an
authorized
participant,
a
lead
market
maker,
or
another
entity
(i.e.,
a
seed
investor)
may
invest
in
the
Fund
and
hold
its
investment
solely
to
facilitate
commencement
of
the
Fund
or
to
facilitate
the
Fund’s
achieving
a
specified
size
or
scale.
Any
such
investment
may
be
held
for
a
limited
period
of
time.
There
can
be
no
assurance
that
any
large
shareholder
would
not
redeem
its
investment,
that
the
size
of
the
Fund
would
be
maintained
at
such
levels
or
that
the
Fund
would
continue
to
meet
applicable
listing
requirements.
Such
larger
than
normal
redemptions
may
cause
the
Fund
to
sell
portfolio
securities
at
times
when
it
would
not
otherwise
do
so,
which
may
negative-
ly
impact
the
Fund’s
NAV
and
liquidity.
Similarly,
large
Fund
share
purchases
may
adversely
affect the
Fund’s
performance
to
the
extent
that the
Fund
is
delayed
in
investing
new
cash
and
is
required
to
maintain
a
larger
cash
position
than
it
ordinarily
would.
These
transactions
may
also
accelerate
the
realization
of
taxable
income
to
shareholders
if
such
sales
of
investments
resulted
in
gains
and
may
also
increase
transaction
costs.
In
addition,
a
large
redemption
could
result
in the
Fund’s
current
expenses
being
allocated
over
a
smaller
asset
base,
leading
to
an
increase
in the
Fund’s
expense
ratio.
Although
large
shareholder
transactions
may
be
more
frequent
under
certain
circumstanc-
es, the
Fund
is
generally
subject
to
the
risk
that
shareholders
can
purchase
or
redeem
a
significant
percentage
of
Fund
shares
at
any
time.
In
addition,
transactions
by
large
shareholders
may
account
for
a
large
percentage
of
the
trading
volume
on
NYSE
Arca
and
may,
therefore,
have
a
material
upward
or
downward
effect
on
the
market
price
of
the
shares.

We
have
audited
the

of

and

of
Calvert
US
Large-Cap
Core
Responsible
Index
ETF
(the
“Fund”)
(one

including
the

as

and
the
related
statements
of
operations
and

in

and
the

for
the

through
September

2023,
and
the
related
notes
(collectively
referred
to
as
the
“financial

In
our
opinion,
the
financial
statements
present
fairly,
in
all
material
respects,
the
financial
position
of
the
Fund
(one
of
the
funds
constituting
Morgan
Stanley

Trust)
at
September
30,
2023,
and
the
results
of
its
operations,
the
changes
in
its
net

and
its
financial
highlights
for
the
period
from
January
30,
2023
(commencement
of
operations)
through
September
30,
2023,
in
conformity
with
U.S.
generally
accepted
accounting
principles.
Basis
for
Opinion
These
financial
statements
are
the
responsibility
of
the
Trust’s
management.
Our
responsibility
is
to
express
an
opinion
on
the
Fund’s
financial
statements
based
on
our
audit.
We
are
a
public
accounting
firm
registered
with
the
Public
Company
Accounting
Oversight
Board
(United
States)
(“PCAOB”)
and
are
required
to
be
independent
with
respect
to
the
Trust
in
accordance
with
the
U.S.
federal
securities
laws
and
the
applicable
rules
and
regulations
of
the
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
and
the
PCAOB.
We
conducted
our
audit
in
accordance
with
the
standards
of
the
PCAOB.
Those
standards
require
that
we
plan
and
perform
the
audit
to
obtain
reasonable
assurance
about
whether
the
financial
statements
are
free
of
material
misstatement,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud.
The
Trust
is
not
required
to
have,
nor
were
we
engaged
to
perform,
an
audit
of
the
Trust’s
internal
control
over
financial
reporting.
As
part
of
our
audit,
we
are
required
to
obtain
an
understanding
of
internal
control
over
financial
reporting,
but
not
for
the
purpose
of
expressing
an
opinion
on
the
effectiveness
of
the
Trust’s
internal
control
over
financial
reporting.
Accordingly,
we
express
no
such
opinion.
Our
audit
included
performing
procedures
to
assess
the
risks
of
material
misstatement
of
the
financial
statements,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud,
and
performing
procedures
that
respond
to
those
risks.
Such
procedures
included
examining,
on
a
test
basis,
evidence
regarding
the
amounts
and
disclosures
in
the
financial
statements.
Our
procedures
included
confirmation
of
securities
owned
as
of
September
30,
2023,
by
correspondence
with
the
custodian,
brokers
and
others;
when
replies
were
not
received
from
brokers
and
others,
we
performed
other
auditing
procedures.
Our
audit
also
included
evaluating
the
accounting
principles
used
and
significant
estimates
made
by
management,
as
well
as
evaluating
the
overall
presentation
of
the
financial
statements.
We
believe
that
our
audit
provides
a
reasonable
basis
for
our
opinion.
We
have
served
as
the
auditor
of
one
or
more
Morgan
Stanley
investment
companies
since
2000.

Proxy
Voting
Policy
and
Proxy
Voting
Record
The
Board
of
Trustees
believes
that
the
voting
of
proxies
on
securities
held
by
the
Trust
is
an
important
element
of
the
overall
invest-
ment
process.
As
such,
the
Trustees
have
delegated
the
responsibility
to
vote
such
proxies
to
the
Adviser.
The
Adviser
has
engaged
Calvert
to
provide
proxy
voting
services
with
respect
to
the
Trust.
The
Adviser’s
Proxy
Voting
Policy
speci-
fies
that
each
Fund
will
follow
Calvert’s
Proxy
Voting
Policies
and
Procedures
and
Global
Proxy
Voting
Guidelines.
When
available,
the
Trust’s
proxy
voting
record
for
the
most
recent
12-month
period
ending
June
30,
as
filed
with
the
SEC,
will
be
available
without
charge
on
our
web
site
at
www.calvert.com.
The
Trust’s
proxy
voting
record
will
also
be
available
without
charge
on
the
SEC’s
web
site
at
http://www.sec.gov.

funds
and

concise

engaging
streamlined
annual
and
semiannual

to

that
highlight
key

Other

including

no

but

date
of

2024.
At
this
time,
management
is
evaluating

Dear
Shareholders,
We
are
pleased
to
provide
this
Annual Report,
in

learn
how
your

in Calvert
US
Large-Cap
Diversity,
Eq-
uity
and

Index

performed
during
the
period
beginning
January

(when
the
Fund
commenced
operations)
and
ended
September
30,
2023.
Morgan
Stanley
Investment
Management,
the
Fund's
investment
adviser, is
a
client-centric,
investor-led
organization.
Our
global
presence,
intellectual
capital,
and
breadth
of

and
services
enable

lenges

Expense
Example
(unaudited)
Calvert
US
Large-Cap
Diversity,
Equity
and
Inclusion
Index
ETF
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust
As
a
shareholder
of
the
Fund,
you
incur
two
types
of
costs:
(1)
transactional
costs;
and
(2)
ongoing
costs,
which
may
include man-
agement
fees,
and
distribution
and
shareholder
services
fees.
This
example
is
intended
to
help
you
understand
your
ongoing
costs
(in
dollars)
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
to
compare
these
costs
with
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
other
funds.
This
example
is
based
on
an
investment
of
$1,000
invested
at
the
beginning
of
the
six-month
period
ended
September
30,
2023 and
held
for
the
entire
six-month
period.
Actual
Expenses
The
table
below
provides
information
about
actual
account
values
and
actual
expenses.
You
may
use
the
information
in
this
table,
together
with
the
amount
you
invested,
to
estimate
the
expenses
that
you
paid
over
the
period.
Simply
divide
your
account
value
by
$1,000
(for
example,
an
$8,600
account
value
divided
by
$1,000
=
8.6),
then
multiply
the
result
by
the
number
in
the
table
under
the
heading
entitled
“Actual
Expenses
Paid
During
Period”
to
estimate
the
expenses
you
paid
on
your
account
during
this
period.
Hypothetical Example
for
Comparison
Purposes
The
table
below
provides
information
about
hypothetical
account
values
and
hypothetical
expenses
based
on
the
Fund’s
actual
expense
ratio
and
an
assumed
rate
of
return
of
5%
per
year
before
expenses,
which
is
not
the
Fund’s
actual
return.
The
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
may
not
be
used
to
estimate
the
actual
ending
account
balance
or
expenses
you
paid
for
the
period.
You
may
use
this
information
to
compare
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
other
funds.
To
do
so,
compare
this
5%
hypothetical
example
with
the
5%
hypothetical
examples
that
appear
in
the
shareholder
reports
of
the
other
funds. 
Please
note
that
the
expenses
shown
in
the
table
are
meant
to
highlight
your
ongoing
costs
only
and
do
not
reflect
any
transactional
costs,
such
as
sales
charges
(loads).
Therefore,
the
information
for
each
class
in
the
table
is
useful
in
comparing
ongoing
costs
only,
and
will
not
help
you
determine
the
relative
total
costs
of
owning
different
funds.
In
addition,
if
these
transactional
costs
were
included,
your
costs
would
have
been
higher.

and
Market
Conditions
For
U.S.
equity
investors,
the
8-month
period
ended
September
30,
2023,
was
a
roller-coaster
ride,
driven
largely
by
shifting
perceptions
of
whether
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(the
Fed)
could
bring
the
world’s
largest
economy
in
for
a
soft
landing,
and
changing
expectations
of
how
long
interest
rates
might
remain
high.
As
the
period
opened,
U.S.
stocks
were
in
the
midst
of
a
rally
that
lasted
through
July
2023.
The
initial
tailwind
was
ChatGPT,
an
artificial
intelligence
(AI)
application
that
led
investors
to
perceive
AI
might
become
the
next
big
innovation
to
drive
the
information
technology
(IT)
sector.
As
a
result,
IT
-
one
of
the
worst-performing
sectors
in
2022
-
became
the
standout
sector
during
the
first
half
of
2023.
Earlier
recession
fears
that
had
weighed
on
stock
prices
receded
as
many
inves-
tors
came
around
to
the
view
that
the
U.S.
economy
was
doing
surprisingly
well.
But
in
the
final
two
months
of
the
period,
the
bond
market
halted
the
stock
market’s
momentum.
As
it
became
clear
the
Fed
would
keep
interest
rates
higher
for
longer
than
investors
had
anticipated
just
a
few
months
earlier,
longer
term
bond
rates
rose.
Given
the
potential
for
relatively
attractive
returns
with
lower
risk
than
stocks,
many
investors
shifted
from
equity
assets
to
bonds,
and
stock
prices
ended
on
a
down
note
as
the
period
came
to
a
close.
For
the
period
as
a
whole,
however,
the
August-September
stock
market
retreat
did
not
totally
erase
previous
gains,
and
the
Russell
1000®
Index,
a
measure
of
U.S.
large-cap
stocks,
returned
a
respectable
7.55%.
Fund
Performance
For
the
8-month
period
from
inception
on
January
30,
2023,
through
September
30,
2023,
Calvert
US
Large-Cap
Diversity,
Equity
and
Inclusion
Index
ETF
(the
Fund)
returned
9.23%
based
on
net
asset
value
(NAV)
and
reinvestment
of
distribu-
tions
per
share,
net
of
fees.
The
Fund
outperformed
its
pri-
mary
benchmark,
the
Russell
1000®
Index
(the
Index),
which
returned
7.55%
and
underperformed
its
secondary
benchmark,
the
Calvert
US
Large-Cap
Diversity
Research
Index
(the
Calvert
Index),
which
returned
9.37%
during
the
period.
The
Fund’s
underperformance
versus
the
Calvert
Index
was
due
to
Fund
expenses
and
fees,
which
the
Calvert
Index
does
not
incur.
Of
the
11
market
sectors
held
by
the
Fund,
consumer
dis-
cretionary,
energy,
health
care,
industrials,
and
information
technology
(IT)
delivered
positive
returns
during
the
period.
The
strongest-performing
sectors
were
IT,
energy,
and
indus-
trials.
The
weakest-performing
sectors
were
utilities,
real
estate,
and
materials.
Contributors
to
Fund
performance
versus
the
Index
included
an
overweight
position
and
stock
selections
in
the
IT
sector;
stock
selections
in
the
health
care
sector;
and
an
underweight
position
in
the
real
estate
sector
-
the
worst-performing
sector
within
the
Index
and
the
Fund,
as
property
sales
were
ham-
pered
by
rising
mortgage
rates
during
the
period
and
compa-
nies
cut
back
on
office
space
after
the
pandemic.
In
the
IT
sector,
Index-relative
performance
benefited
from
the
Fund’s
overweight
position
in
semiconductor
firm
NVIDIA
Corp.
(NVIDIA),
whose
stock
price
more
than
doubled
during
the
period.
NVIDIA’s
strong
stock
performance
was
driven
by
increased
demand
for
its
high-end
graphics
processing
units
in
the
burgeoning
artificial
intelligence
industry. By
period-end,
NVIDIA
had
been
sold
out
of
the
Fund.
In
the
health
care
sector,
performance
versus
the
Index
was
helped
by
an
overweight
position
in
Eli
Lilly
&
Co.
(Eli
Lilly),
a
global
drugmaker
specializing
in
diabetes,
oncology,
and
immunology
therapies.
Eli
Lilly
shares
appreciated
strongly
during
the
period,
with
the
best
performance
occurring
in
August
2023
after
the
company
reported
strong
second-quarter
earnings,
driven
in
part
by
sales
of
its
diabetes
drug,
Mounjaro.
In
contrast,
detractors
from
Fund
performance
versus
the
Index
included
stock
selections
in
the
communication
services
and
financials
sectors,
as
well
as
stock
selections
and
an
under-
weight
position
in
the
consumer
discretionary
sector.
In
the
communication
services
sector,
not
owning
Index
posi-
tion
Meta
Platforms,
Inc.
(Meta)
-
the
social
media
company
behind
Facebook,
Instagram,
and
Messenger
-
detracted
from
Index-relative
returns.
Meta’s
stock
price
doubled
during
the
period
as
advertising
revenues
rebounded
on
improved
ad
tar-
geting,
while
profit
margins
exceeded
expectations
due
to
more
rational
spending
on
longer-term
initiatives.

(“GAAP”).
Such
policies
are
consistently
followed
by

1.
Security
Valuation:
(1)
An
equity
portfolio
security
list-
ed
or
traded
on
an
exchange
is
valued
at
its
latest
reported
sales
price
(or
at
the
exchange
official
closing
price
if
such
exchange
reports
an
official
closing
price),
and
if
there
were
no
sales
on
a
given
day
and
if
there
is
no
official
ex-
change
closing
price
for
that
day,
the
security
is
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
last
reported
bid
and
asked
prices
if
such
bid
and
asked
prices
are
available
on
the
relevant
ex-
changes.
If
only
bid
prices
are
available
then
the
latest
bid
price
may
be
used.
Listed
equity
securities
not
traded
on
the
valuation
date
with
no
reported
bid
and
asked
prices
available
on
the
exchange
are
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
current
bid
and
asked
prices
obtained
from
one
or
more
reputable
brokers/dealers.
In
cases
where
a
securi-
ty
is
traded
on
more
than
one
exchange,
the
security
is
valued
on
the
exchange
designated
as
the
primary
market;
(2)
all
other
equity
portfolio
securities
for
which
over-the-
counter
(“OTC”)
market
quotations
are
readily
available
are
valued
at
the
latest
reported
sales
price
(or
at
the
mar-
ket
official
closing
price
if
such
market
reports
an
official
closing
price),
and
if
there
was
no
trading
in
the
security
on
a
given
day
and
if
there
is
no
official
closing
price
from
relevant
markets
for
that
day,
the
security
is
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
last
reported
bid
and
asked
prices
if
such
bid
and
asked
prices
are
available
on
the
rel-
evant
markets.
An
unlisted
equity
security
that
does
not
trade
on
the
valuation
date
and
for
which
bid
and
asked
prices
from
the
relevant
markets
are
unavailable
is
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
current
bid
and
asked
prices
obtained
from
one
or
more
reputable
brokers/dealers;
(3)
fixed
income
securities
may
be
valued
by
an
outside
pricing
service/vendor
approved
by
the
Trust’s
Board
of
Trustees
(the
“Trustees”).
The
pricing
service/vendor
may
employ
a
pricing
model
that
takes
into
account,
among
other
things,
bids,
yield
spreads
and/or
other
market
data
and
specific
security
characteristics.
If
Morgan
Stanley
Investment
Management
Inc.
(the
“Adviser”)
a
whol-
ly-owned
subsidiary
of
Morgan
Stanley,
determines
that
the
price
provided
by
the
outside
pricing
service/vendor
or
exchange
does
not
reflect
the
security’s
fair
value
or
is
unable
to
provide
a
price,
prices
from
brokers
or
dealers
may
also
be
utilized.
In
these
circumstances,
the
value
of
the
security
will
be
the
mean
of
bid
and
asked
prices
obtained
from
reputable brokers/dealers;
(4)
when
market
quotations
are
not
readily
available,
as
defined
by
Rule
2a-5
under
the
Act,
including
circumstances
under
which
the
Adviser
determines
that
the
closing
price,
last
sale
price
or
the
mean
between
the
last
reported
bid
and
asked
prices
are
not
reflective
of
a
security’s
market
value,
port-
folio
securities
are
valued
at
their
fair
value
as
determined
in
good
faith
under
procedures
established
by
and
under
the
general
supervision
of
the
Trustees; and
(5)
invest-
ments
in
mutual
funds,
including
the
Morgan
Stanley
Institutional
Liquidity
Funds,
are
valued
at
the
net
asset
value
(“NAV”)
as
of
the
close
of
each
business
day.
In
connection
with
Rule
2a-5
of
the
Act,
the
Trust-
ees
have
designated
the
Trust's
Adviser
as
its
valuation
designee.
The
valuation
designee
has
responsibility
for
determining
fair
value
and
to
make
the
actual
calculations
pursuant
to
the
fair
valuation
methodologies
previously
approved
by
the
Trustees.
Under
procedures
approved
by
the
Trustees,
the
Trust’s
Adviser
has
formed
a
Valuation
Committee
whose
members
are
approved
by
the
Trustees.
The
Valuation
Committee
provides
administration
and
oversight
of
the
Trust’s
valuation
policies
and
procedures,
which
are
reviewed
at
least
annually
by
the
Trustees.
These
procedures
allow

to

Fair
Value
Measurement:
Financial
Accounting
Stan-
dards
Board
(“FASB”)
Accounting
Standards
Codifica-
tion
TM
("ASC"),
“Fair
Value
Measurement”
(“ASC
820”),
defines
fair
value
as
the
price
that
would
be
received
to
sell
an
asset
or
pay to
transfer
a
liability
in
an orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measure-
ment
date. ASC
820
establishes
a
three tier
hierarchy
to
distinguish
between
(1)
inputs
that
reflect
the
assump-
tions
market
participants
would
use
in
valuing
an
asset
or
liability
developed
based
on
market
data
obtained
from
sources
independent
of
the
reporting
entity
(observable
inputs)
and
(2)
inputs
that
reflect
the
reporting
entity’s
own
assumptions
about
the
assumptions
market
partici-
pants
would
use
in
valuing
an
asset
or
liability
developed
based
on
the
best
information
available
in
the
circum-
stances
(unobservable
inputs)
and
to
establish
classifica-
tion
of
fair
value
measurements
for
disclosure
purposes.
Various
inputs
are
used
in
determining
the
value
of
the
Fund’s
investments.
The
inputs
are
summarized
in
the
three
broad
levels
listed
below:
Level
1
unadjusted
quoted
prices
in
active
markets
for
identical
investments.
Level
2
-
other
significant
observable
inputs
(includ-
ing
quoted
prices
for
similar
investments,
interest
rates,
prepayment
speeds,
credit
risk,
etc.)
 Level
3
-
significant
unobservable
inputs
including
the
Fund’s
own
assumptions
in
determin-
ing
the
fair
value
of
investments.
Factors
considered
in
making
this
determination
may
include,
but
are
not
limited
to,
infor-
mation
obtained
by
contacting
the
issuer,
analysts,
or
the
appropriate
stock
exchange
(for
exchange-traded
securities),
analysis
of
the
issuer’s
financial
statements
or
other
available
documents
and,
if
necessary,
available
information
concerning
other
securities
in
similar
circumstances.
The
inputs
or
methodology
used
for
valuing
securities
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
associated
with
investing
in
those
securities
and
the
determination
of
the
significance
of
a
particular
input
to
the
fair
value
mea-
surement
in
its
entirety
requires
judgment
and
considers
factors
specific
to
each
security. 
The
following
is
a
summary
of
the
inputs
used
to
value
the
Fund's
investments
as
of
September
30,
2023:
Transfers
between
investment
levels
may
occur
as
the
markets
fluctuate
and/or
the
availability
of
data
used
in
an
investment’s
valuation
changes. 
3.
Indemnifications:
The Trust
enters
into
contracts
that
contain
a
variety
of
indemnification
clauses.
The
Trust’s
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
un-
known
as
this
would
involve
future
claims
that
may
be
made
against
the
Fund
that
have
not yet
occurred. 
4.
Dividends
and
Distributions
to
Shareholders: 
Divi-
dends
and
distributions
to
shareholders
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Dividends
from
net
investment
in-
come,
if
any,
are
declared
and
paid
quarterly.
Net
realized
capital
gains,
if
any,
are
distributed
at
least
annually.
5.
Security
Transactions,
Income
and
Expenses:
Security
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
the
trade
date
(date
the
order
to
buy
or
sell
is
executed).
Realized
gains
and
losses
on
the
sale
of
investment
securities
are
deter-
mined
on
the
specific
identified
cost
method.
Dividend
income
and
other
distributions
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date
(except
for
certain
foreign
dividends
which
may
be
recorded
as
soon
as
the
Fund
is
informed
of
such
dividends)
net
of
applicable
withholding
taxes.
Non-cash
dividends
received
in
the
form
of
stock,
if
any,
are
recognized
on
the
ex-dividend
date
and
recorded
as
non-cash
dividend
at

value.

0.14% of
the
average
daily
net
assets
of
the
Fund.
Under
the
Agreement,
the
Adviser pays sub-
stantially
all
the
expenses
of
the
Fund
(including
expenses
of
the
Trust
relating
to
the
Fund),
except
for
the
distribution
fees,
if
any,
brokerage
expenses,
acquired
fund
fees
and
expenses,
taxes,
interest,
litigation
expenses,
and
other
extraordinary
expenses,
including
the
costs
of
proxies,
not
incurred
in
the
ordinary
course
of
the
Fund’s
business. 
C.
Distribution
and
Shareholder Services
Plan:
The
Trustees
have
adopted
a
distribution
and
services
plan
("Plan")
pursuant
Rule
12b-1
under the
Act. 
Under the
Plan,
the
Fund
is
authorized
to
pay
distribution
fees
in
connection
with
the
sale
of
its
shares
and
pay
service
fees
in
connection
with
the
provision
of
ongoing
services
to
shareholders
of
the
Fund
and
the
maintenance
of
shareholder
accounts
in
an
amount
up
to
0.25%
of
its
average
daily
net
assets.
No
Rule
12b-1
fees
are
currently
paid
by
the
Fund
and
there
are
no
current
plans
to
impose
these
fees.
D.
Dividend
Disbursing
and
Transfer
Agent:
The
Trust’s
dividend
disbursing
and
transfer
agent
is
JPMorgan
Chase
Bank,
N.A.
("JPMorgan").
E.
Custodian
and
Administrator:
JPMorgan also
serves
as
Custodian
and
Administrator for
the
Trust in
accordance
with
a
Custodian
and
Administration Agreement.
F.
Issuance
and
Redemption
of
Fund
Shares:
The
Fund
is
an
exchange-traded
fund
or
ETF.
Individual
Fund
shares
may
only
be
purchased
and
sold
on
a
national
securi-
ties
exchange
through
a
broker-dealer
and
investors
may
pay
a
commission
to
such
broker-dealers
in
connection
with
their
purchase
or
sale.
The
price
of
Fund
shares
is
based
on
market
price,
and
because
ETF
shares
trade
at
market
prices
rather
than
NAV,
shares
may
trade
at
a
price
greater
than
NAV
(a
premium)
or
less
than
NAV
(a
discount). 
The
Fund
will
only
issue
or
redeem
shares
aggregated
into
blocks
of 50,000
shares
or
multiples
thereof
(“Creation
Units”)
to
Authorized
Participants
who
have
entered
into
agreements
with
the
Funds’
Distributor.
An
Authorized
Participant
is
either
(1)
a
“Participating
Party,”
(i.e.,
a
broker-dealer
or
other
participant
in
the
clearing
process
of
the
Continuous
Net
Settlement
System
of
the
National
Securities
Clearing
Corpo-
ration)
(“Clearing
Process”),
or
(2)
a
participant
of
Depository
Trust
Company (“DTC
Participant”),
and,
in
each
case,
must
have
executed
an
agreement
(“Participation
Agreement”)
with
the
Distributor
with
respect
to
creations
and
redemptions
of
Creation
Units.
The
Fund
will
issue
or
redeem
Creation
Units
in
return
for
a
basket
of
assets
that
the
Fund
specifies
each
day.
Shares
are
listed
on
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange Arca
("NYSE
Arca") and
are
publicly
traded.
If an
investor buys
or
sells
Fund
shares
on
the
secondary
market, the
investor will
pay
or
receive
the
market
price,
which
may
be
higher
or
lower
than
NAV. The
investor's transaction
will
be
priced
at
NAV
if the
investor purchases
or
redeems
Fund
shares
in
Creation
Units.
Authorized
Participants
purchasing
and
redeeming
Creation
Units
may
pay
a
purchase
transaction
fee
and
a
redemption
transaction
fee
directly
to
the
Fund's
Administrator
to
offset
transfer
and
other
transaction
costs
associated
with
the
issuance
and
redemption
of
Creation
Units,
including
Creation
Units
for
cash.
Additionally,
a
portion
of
the
transaction
fee
is
used
to
offset
transactional
costs
typically
accrued
in
the
Fund's
cus-
tody
expenses
directly
related
to
the
issuance
and
redemption
of
Creation
Units.
An
additional
variable
fee
may
be
charged
for
certain
transactions.
Such
fees
would
be
included
in
the
re-
ceivable
for
capital
shares
issued
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities
if
they
are
outstanding
as
of
year-
end. Transaction
fees
assessed
during
the
period
are
included
in
the
proceeds
from
shares
issued
on
the
Statements
of
Changes
in
Net
Assets.

Federal
Income
Taxes:
It
is
the
Fund’s
intention
to
continue
to
qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company
and
distribute
all
of
its
taxable
and
tax
exempt income.
Accordingly,
no
provision
for
federal
income
taxes
is
required
in
the
finan-
cial
statements. 
The
Fund
may
be
subject
to
taxes
imposed
by
countries
in
which
it
invests.
Such
taxes
are
generally
based
on
income
and/
or
capital
gains
earned
or
repatriated.
Taxes
are
accrued
based
on
net
investment
income,
net
realized
gains
and
net
unreal-
ized
appreciation
as
such
income
and/or
gains
are
earned.
Taxes
may
also
be
based
on
transactions
in
foreign
currency
and
are
accrued
based
on
the
value
of
investments
denominated
in
such
currency.
FASB
ASC
740-10,
“Income
Taxes—Overall”,
sets
forth
a
minimum
threshold
for
financial
statement
recognition
of
the
benefit
of
a
tax
position
taken
or
expected
to
be
taken
in
a
tax
return.
Management
has
concluded
there
are
no
significant
uncertain
tax
positions
that
would
require
recognition
in
the
financial
statements.
If
applicable,
the
Fund
recognizes
inter-
est
accrued
related
to
unrecognized
tax
benefits
in
“Interest
Expense”
and
penalties
in
“Other
Expenses”
in
the
Statement
of
Operations.
The
Fund
files
tax
returns
with
the
U.S.
Internal
Revenue
Service,
New
York
and
various
states.
The
tax
year
ended
September
30,
2023 remains
subject
to
examination
by
taxing
authorities.
The
tax
character
of
distributions
paid
may
differ
from
the
character
of
distributions
shown
for
GAAP
purposes
due
to
short-term
capital
gains
being
treated
as
ordinary
income
for
tax
purposes.
The
tax
character
of
distributions
paid
during
fiscal
year 2023
was
as
follows: 
The
amount
and
character
of
income
and
gains
to
be
distrib-
uted
are
determined
in
accordance
with
income
tax
regulations
which
may
differ
from
GAAP.
These
book/tax
differences
are
either
considered
temporary
or
permanent
in
nature. 
Temporary
differences
are
attributable
to
differing
book
and
tax
treatments
for
the
timing
of
the
recognition
of
gains
(loss-
es)
on
certain
investment
transactions
and
the
timing
of
the
deductibility
of
certain
expenses. 
Permanent
differences,
due
to
tax
adjustment
related
to
an
in-kind
redemption,
resulted
in
the
following
reclassifications
among
the
components
of
net
assets
at
September
30,
2023:
At
September
30,
2023,
the
components
of
distributable
earn-
ings
for
the
Fund
on
a
tax
basis
were
as
follows: 
At
September
30,
2023,
the
Fund
had
available
for
fed-
eral
income
tax
purposes
unused
short-term
capital
losses
of $303,265 that
do
not
have
an
expiration
date. 
To
the
extent
that
capital
loss
carryforwards
are
used
to
offset
any
future
capital
gains
realized,
no
capital
gains
tax
liability
will
be
incurred
by
the
Fund
for
gains
realized
and
not
distrib-
uted.
To
the
extent
that
capital
gains
are
offset,
such
gains
will
not
be
distributed
to
the
shareholders. 
I.
Principal
Risks:
Market
Risk:
An
investment
in
the
Fund
is
based
on
the
values
of
the
Fund’s
investments,
which
may
change
due
to
economic
and
other
events
that
affect
markets
generally,
as
well
as
those
that
affect
particular
regions,
countries,
industries,
companies
or
governments.
The
risks
associated
with
these
developments
may
be
magnified
if
social,
political,
economic
and
other
conditions
and
events
(such
as
war,
natural
disasters,
health
emergencies
(e.g.,
epidemics
and
pandemics),
terrorism,
conflicts,
social
unrest,
recessions,
inflation,
rapid
interest
rate
changes
and
supply
chain
disruptions)
adversely
interrupt
the
global
economy
and
financial
markets.
It
is
difficult
to
predict
when
events
affecting
the
U.S.
or
global
financial
markets
may
occur,
the
effects
that
such
events
may
have
and
the
duration
of
those
effects
(which
may
last
for
extended
periods).
These
events
may
negatively
impact
broad
segments
of
businesses
and
populations
and
have
a
significant
and
rapid
negative
impact
on
the
performance
of
the
Fund’s
investments,
adverse-
ly
affect
and
increase
the
volatility
of
the
Fund’s
share
price
and
exacerbate
pre-existing
risks
to
the
Fund.

duration
and
extent
of
these
or
other
types
of
adverse
econom-
ic
and
market
conditions
and
uncertainty
over
the
long
term
cannot
be
reasonably
projected
or
estimated
at
this
time.
The
ultimate
impact
of
public
health
emergencies
or
other
adverse
economic
or
market
developments
and
the
extent
to
which
the
associated
conditions
impact
the
Fund
and
its
investments
will
also
depend
on
other
future
developments,
which
are
highly
uncertain,
difficult
to
accurately
predict
and
subject
to
change
at
any
time.
The
financial
performance
of
the
Fund’s
invest-
ments
(and,
in
turn,
the
Fund’s
investment
results)
as
well
as
their
liquidity
may
be
adversely
affected
because
of
these
and
similar
types
of
factors
and
developments.
Tracking
Error
Risk:
Tracking
error
risk
refers
to
the
risk
that
the
Fund’s
performance
may
not
match
or
correlate
to
that
of
the
index
it
attempts
to
track,
either
on
a
daily
or
aggregate
basis.
Tracking
error
may
occur
because
of
transac-
tion
costs,
the
Fund’s
holding
of
cash,
differences
in
accrual
of
dividends,
changes
to
the
index
or
the
need
to
meet
new
or
existing
regulatory
requirements.
Factors
such
as
Fund
expens-
es,
imperfect
correlation
between
the
Fund’s
investments
and
the
index,
rounding
of
share
prices,
changes
to
the
composition
of
the
index,
regulatory
policies,
limitations
on
Fund
invest-
ments
imposed
by
Fund
diversification
and/or
concentration
policies,
high
portfolio
turnover
rate
and
the
use
of
leverage
all
contribute
to
tracking
error.
Unlike
the
Fund,
the
returns
of
the
index
are
not
reduced
by
investment
and
other
operating
expenses,
including
the
trading
costs
associated
with
imple-
menting
changes
to
its
portfolio
of
investments.
Tracking
error
risk
may
cause
the
Fund’s
performance
to
be
less
than
expected.
Tracking
error
risk
may
be
heightened
during
times
of
market
volatility,
unusual
market
conditions
or
other
abnormal
cir-
cumstances.
The
Fund
may
be
required
to
deviate
its
invest-
ments
from
the
securities
and
relative
weightings
of
the
index
to
comply
with
applicable
laws
and
regulations
or
because
of
market
restrictions
or
other
legal
reasons,
including
regulatory
limits
or
other
restrictions
on
securities
that
may
be
purchased
by
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates.
If
the
Fund
uses
a
sampling
method
of
indexing,
it
may
have
a
larger
tracking
error
than
if
it
used
a
replication
method
of
indexing.
Index
Related
Risk:
The
Fund’s
return
may
not
track
the
return
of
the
index
for
a
number
of
reasons
and
therefore
may
not
achieve
its
investment
objective.
For
example,
the
Fund
incurs
a
number
of
operating
expenses
not
applicable
to
the
index,
and
incurs
costs
in
buying
and
selling
securities,
espe-
cially
when
rebalancing
the
Fund’s
securities
holdings
to
reflect
changes
in
the
composition
of
the
index.
In
addition,
the
Fund’s
return
may
differ
from
the
return
of
the
index
because
of,
among
other
things,
pricing
differences
and
the
inability
to
purchase
certain
securities
included
in
the
underlying index
due
to
regulatory
or
other
restrictions. 
In
addition,
when
the
Fund
uses
a
representative
sampling
ap-
proach,
the
Fund
may
not
be
as
well
correlated
with
the
return
of
the
underlying
index
as
when
the
Fund
purchases
all
of
the
securities
in
the
index
in
the
proportions
in
which
they
are
rep-
resented
in
the
index.
Errors
in
the
construction
or
calculation
of
the
index
may
occur
from
time
to
time.
Any
such
errors
may
not
be
identified
and
corrected
by
the
index
provider
for
some
period
of
time,
which
may
have
an
adverse
impact
on
the
Fund
and
its
shareholders.
The
risk
that
the
Fund
may
not
track
the
performance
of
the
index
may
be
heightened
during
times
of
increased
market
volatility
or
other
unusual
market
conditions.
Authorized
Participant
Concentration
Risk:
Only
an
authorized
participant
may
engage
in
creation
or
redemption
transactions
directly
with
the
Fund.
The
Fund
has
a
limited
number
of
intermediaries
that
act
as
authorized
participants
and
none
of
these
authorized
participants
is
or
will
be
obligated
to
engage
in
creation
or
redemption
transactions.
To
the
extent
that
these
intermediaries
exit
the
business
or
are
unable
to
or
choose
not
to
proceed
with
creation
and/or
redemption
orders
with
respect
to
the
Fund
and
no
other
authorized
participant
creates
or
redeems,
shares
may
trade
at
a
discount
to NAV
and
possibly
face
trading
halts
and/or
delisting. 
Trading
Risk:
The
market
prices
of
shares
are
expected
to
fluctuate,
in
some
cases
materially,
in
response
to
changes
in
the
Fund’s
NAV,
the
intra-day
value
of
the
Fund’s
holdings,
and
supply
and
demand
for
shares.
The
Adviser
cannot
predict
whether
shares
will
trade
above,
below
or
at
their
NAV.
Disrup-
tions
to
creations
and
redemptions,
the
existence
of
significant
market
volatility
or
potential
lack
of
an
active
trading
market
for
the
shares
(including
through
a
trading
halt),
as
well
as
other
factors,
may
result
in
the
shares
trading
significantly
above
(at
a
premium)
or
below
(at
a
discount)
to
NAV
or
to
the
intraday
value
of
the
Fund’s
holdings
(and,
as
a
result,
an
investor
may
pay
more
for,
or
receive
less
than,
the
underlying
value
of
the
shares,
respectively).
Buying
or
selling
shares
in
the
secondary
market
may
require
paying
brokerage
commissions
or
other
charges
imposed
by
brokers
as
determined
by
that
broker.
Brokerage
commissions
are
often
a
fixed
amount
and
may
be
a
significant
proportional
cost
when
seeking
to
buy
or
sell
relatively
small
amounts
of
shares.
In
addition,
the
market
price
of
shares,
like
the
price
of
any
exchange-traded
security,
includes
a
“bid-ask
spread”
charged
by
the
market
makers
or
other
participants
that
trade
the
particular
security.
The
spread
of the
Fund’s
shares
varies
over
time
based
on
the
Fund’s
trad-
ing
volume
and
market
liquidity
and
may
increase

underlying
securities,
or
market
liquidity
decrease. 
Large
Shareholder
Transaction
Risk:
The
Fund
may
experience
adverse
effects
when
certain
shareholders
purchase
or
redeem
large
amounts
of
shares
of the
Fund.
In
addition,
a
third
party
investor,
the
Adviser
or
an
affiliate
of
the
Adviser,
an
authorized
participant,
a
lead
market
maker,
or
another
entity
(i.e.,
a
seed
investor)
may
invest
in
the
Fund
and
hold
its
investment
solely
to
facilitate
commencement
of
the
Fund
or
to
facilitate
the
Fund’s
achieving
a
specified
size
or
scale.
Any
such
investment
may
be
held
for
a
limited
period
of
time.
There
can
be
no
assurance
that
any
large
shareholder
would
not
redeem
its
investment,
that
the
size
of
the
Fund
would
be
maintained
at
such
levels
or
that
the
Fund
would
continue
to
meet
applicable
listing
requirements.
Such
larger
than
normal
redemptions
may
cause
the
Fund
to
sell
portfolio
securities
at
times
when
it
would
not
otherwise
do
so,
which
may
negative-
ly
impact
the
Fund’s
NAV
and
liquidity.
Similarly,
large
Fund
share
purchases
may
adversely
affect the
Fund’s
performance
to
the
extent
that the
Fund
is
delayed
in
investing
new
cash
and
is
required
to
maintain
a
larger
cash
position
than
it
ordinarily
would.
These
transactions
may
also
accelerate
the
realization
of
taxable
income
to
shareholders
if
such
sales
of
investments
resulted
in
gains
and
may
also
increase
transaction
costs.
In
addition,
a
large
redemption
could
result
in the
Fund’s
current
expenses
being
allocated
over
a
smaller
asset
base,
leading
to
an
increase
in the
Fund’s
expense
ratio.
Although
large
shareholder
transactions
may
be
more
frequent
under
certain
circumstanc-
es, the
Fund
is
generally
subject
to
the
risk
that
shareholders
can
purchase
or
redeem
a
significant
percentage
of
Fund
shares
at
any
time.
In
addition,
transactions
by
large
shareholders
may
account
for
a
large
percentage
of
the
trading
volume
on
NYSE
Arca
and
may,
therefore,
have
a
material
upward
or
downward
effect
on
the
market
price
of
the
shares. 
J.
Other:
At
September
30,
2023,
the
Fund
had
record
own-
ers
of
10%
or
greater,
which
are
related
parties
of
the
Fund.
In-
vestment
activities
of
these
shareholders
could
have
a
material
impact
on
the
Fund.
The
aggregate
percentage
of
such
owners
was
88.9%.

Opinion
on
the
Financial
Statements
We
have
audited
the
accompanying
statement
of
assets
and
liabilities
of
Calvert
US
Large-Cap
Diversity,
Equity
and
Inclusion
Index
ETF
(the
“Fund”)
(one
of
the
funds
constituting
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust
(the
“Trust”)),
including
the
portfolio
of
invest-
ments,
as
of
September
30,
2023,
and
the
related
statements
of
operations
and
changes
in
net
assets
and
the
financial
highlights
for
the
period
from
January
30,
2023
(commencement
of
operations)
through
September
30,
2023,
and
the
related
notes
(collectively
referred
to
as
the
“financial
statements”).
In
our
opinion,
the
financial
statements
present
fairly,
in
all
material
respects,
the
financial
position
of
the
Fund
(one
of
the
funds
constituting
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust)
at
September
30,
2023,
and
the
results
of
its
opera-
tions,
the
changes
in
its
net
assets
and
its
financial
highlights
for
the
period
from
January
30,
2023
(commencement
of
operations)
through
September
30,
2023,
in
conformity
with
U.S.
generally
accepted
accounting
principles.
Basis
for
Opinion
These
financial
statements
are
the
responsibility
of
the
Trust’s
management.
Our
responsibility
is
to
express
an
opinion
on
the
Fund’s
financial
statements
based
on
our
audit.
We
are
a
public
accounting
firm
registered
with
the
Public
Company
Accounting
Oversight
Board
(United
States)
(“PCAOB”)
and
are
required
to
be
independent
with
respect
to
the
Trust
in
accordance
with
the
U.S.
federal
securities
laws
and
the
applicable
rules
and
regulations
of
the
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
and
the
PCAOB.
We
conducted
our
audit
in
accordance
with
the
standards
of
the
PCAOB.
Those
standards
require
that
we
plan
and
perform
the
audit
to
obtain
reasonable
assurance
about
whether
the
financial
statements
are
free
of
material
misstatement,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud.
The
Trust
is
not
required
to
have,
nor
were
we
engaged
to
perform,
an
audit
of
the
Trust’s
internal
control
over
financial
reporting.
As
part
of
our
audit,
we
are
required
to
obtain
an
understanding
of
internal
control
over
financial
reporting,
but
not
for
the
purpose
of
expressing
an
opinion
on
the
effectiveness
of
the
Trust’s
internal
control
over
financial
reporting.
Accordingly,
we
express
no
such
opinion.
Our
audit
included
performing
procedures
to
assess
the
risks
of
material
misstatement
of
the
financial
statements,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud,
and
performing
procedures
that
respond
to
those
risks.
Such
procedures
included
examining,
on
a
test
basis,
evidence
regarding
the
amounts
and
disclosures
in
the
financial
statements.
Our
procedures
included
confirmation
of
securities
owned
as
of
September
30,
2023,
by
correspondence
with
the
custodian,
brokers
and
others;
when
replies
were
not
received
from
brokers
and
others,
we
performed
other
auditing
procedures.
Our
audit
also
included
evaluating
the
accounting
principles
used
and
significant
estimates
made
by
management,
as
well
as
evaluating
the
overall
presentation
of
the
financial
statements.
We
believe
that
our
audit
provides
a
reasonable
basis
for
our
opinion.
We
have
served
as
the
auditor
of
one
or
more
Morgan
Stanley
investment
companies
since
2000.

Example
(unaudited)
Calvert
US
Mid-Cap
Core
Responsible
Index
ETF
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust
As
a
shareholder
of
the
Fund,
you
incur
two
types
of
costs:
(1)
transactional
costs;
and
(2)
ongoing
costs,
which
may
include man-
agement
fees,
and
distribution
and
shareholder
services
fees.
This
example
is
intended
to
help
you
understand
your
ongoing
costs
(in
dollars)
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
to
compare
these
costs
with
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
other
funds.
This
example
is
based
on
an
investment
of
$1,000
invested
at
the
beginning
of
the
six-month
period
ended
September
30,
2023 and
held
for
the
entire
six-month
period.
Actual
Expenses
The
table
below
provides
information
about
actual
account
values
and
actual
expenses.
You
may
use
the
information
in
this
table,
together
with
the
amount
you
invested,
to
estimate
the
expenses
that
you
paid
over
the
period.
Simply
divide
your
account
value
by
$1,000
(for
example,
an
$8,600
account
value
divided
by
$1,000
=
8.6),
then
multiply
the
result
by
the
number
in
the
table
under
the
heading
entitled
“Actual
Expenses
Paid
During
Period”
to
estimate
the
expenses
you
paid
on
your
account
during
this
period.
Hypothetical Example
for
Comparison
Purposes
The
table
below
provides
information
about
hypothetical
account
values
and
hypothetical
expenses
based
on
the
Fund’s
actual
expense
ratio
and
an
assumed
rate
of
return
of
5%
per
year
before
expenses,
which
is
not
the
Fund’s
actual
return.
The
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
may
not
be
used
to
estimate
the
actual
ending
account
balance
or
expenses
you
paid
for
the
period.
You
may
use
this
information
to
compare
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
other
funds.
To
do
so,
compare
this
5%
hypothetical
example
with
the
5%
hypothetical
examples
that
appear
in
the
shareholder
reports
of
the
other
funds. 
Please
note
that
the
expenses
shown
in
the
table
are
meant
to
highlight
your
ongoing
costs
only
and
do
not
reflect
any
transactional
costs,
such
as
sales
charges
(loads).
Therefore,
the
information
for
each
class
in
the
table
is
useful
in
comparing
ongoing
costs
only,
and
will
not
help
you
determine
the
relative
total
costs
of
owning
different
funds.
In
addition,
if
these
transactional
costs
were
included,
your
costs
would
have
been
higher.

Investment
Overview
(unaudited)
Calvert
US
Mid-Cap
Core
Responsible
Index
ETF
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust
Economic
and
Market
Conditions
For
U.S.
equity
investors,
the
8-month
period
ended
September
30,
2023,
was
a
roller-coaster
ride,
driven
largely
by
shifting
perceptions
of
whether
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(the
Fed)
could
bring
the
world’s
largest
economy
in
for
a
soft
landing,
and
changing
expectations
of
how
long
interest
rates
might
remain
high.
As
the
period
opened,
U.S.
stocks
were
in
the
midst
of
a
rally
that
lasted
through
July
2023.
The
initial
tailwind
was
ChatGPT,
an
artificial
intelligence
(AI)
application
that
led
investors
to
perceive
AI
might
become
the
next
big
innovation
to
drive
the
information
technology
(IT)
sector.
As
a
result,
IT
-
one
of
the
worst-performing
sectors
in
2022
-
became
the
standout
sector
during
the
first
half
of
2023.
Earlier
recession
fears
that
had
weighed
on
stock
prices
receded
as
many
inves-
tors
came
around
to
the
view
that
the
U.S.
economy
was
doing
surprisingly
well.
But
in
the
final
two
months
of
the
period,
the
bond
market
halted
the
stock
market’s
momentum.
As
it
became
clear
the
Fed
would
keep
interest
rates
higher
for
longer
than
investors
had
anticipated
just
a
few
months
earlier,
longer
term
bond
rates
rose.
Given
the
potential
for
relatively
attractive
returns
with
lower
risk
than
stocks,
many
investors
shifted
from
equity
assets
to
bonds,
and
stock
prices
ended
on
a
down
note
as
the
period
came
to
a
close.
For
the
period
as
a
whole,
however,
the
August-September
stock
market
retreat
did
not
totally
erase
previous
gains,
and
the
Russell
1000®
Index,
a
measure
of
U.S.
large-cap
stocks,
returned
a
respectable
7.55%.
Fund
Performance
For
the
8-month
period
from
inception
on
January
30,
2023,
through
September
30,
2023,
Calvert
US
Mid-Cap
Core
Re-
sponsible
Index
ETF
(the
Fund)
returned
-4.06%
based
on
net
asset
value
(NAV)
and
reinvestment
of
distributions
per
share,
net
of
fees.
The
Fund
underperformed
its
primary
benchmark,
the
Russell
Midcap®
Index
(the
Index),
which
returned
-2.25%
and
underperformed
its
secondary
benchmark,
the
Calvert
US
Mid-Cap
Core
Responsible
Index
(the
Calvert
Index),
which
returned
-3.97%
during
the
period.
The
Fund’s
underperformance
versus
the
Calvert
Index
was
due
to
Fund
expenses
and
fees,
which
the
Calvert
Index
does
not
incur.
Of
the
11
market
sectors
held
by
the
Fund,
energy,
industrials,
and
information
technology
(IT)
delivered
positive
returns
during
the
period.
The
strongest-performing
sectors
were
en-
ergy,
industrials,
and
IT.
The
weakest-performing
sectors
were
utilities,
financials,
and
health
care.
Detractors
from
Fund
performance
versus
the
Index
included
stock
selections
and
an
overweight
position
in
the
financials
sector,
as
well
as
stock
selections
in
the
IT
and
consumer
dis-
cretionary
sectors.
In
the
financials
sector,
not
owning
Index
position
Apollo
Global
Management,
Inc.
(Apollo)
detracted
from
returns
relative
to
the
Index
during
the
period.
New
York-based
private
equity
firm
Apollo
outperformed
most
of
its
peers
in
the
finan-
cials
sector
during
the
period,
with
its
stock
price
reaching
an
all-time
high
in
September
2023.
In
the
IT
sector,
not
owning
Index
position
Palantir
Technolo-
gies,
Inc.
(Palantir)
detracted
from
Index-relative
returns.
Soft-
ware
firm
Palantir,
which
specializes
in
big
data
analytics,
saw
its
stock
price
more
than
double
during
the
period,
boosted
by
the
investor
enthusiasm
for
artificial
intelligence,
or
AI,
that
drove
a
technology
stock
rally
during
the
first
half
of
2023.
In
contrast,
contributors
to
Fund
performance
versus
the
Index
included
an
underweight
position
in
the
materials
sector;
an
overweight
position
in
the
industrials
sector;
and
an
underweight
position
in
the
real
estate
sector,
which
delivered
negative
returns
as
property
sales
were
hampered
by
rising
mortgage
rates
and
companies
cut
back
on
office
space
after
the
pandemic.
In
the
real
estate
sector,
not
owning
two
commercial
real
estate
investment
trusts
within
the
Index
that
declined
in
price
during
the
period
-
Realty
Income
Corp.
(Realty
Income)
and
Alexandria
Real
Estate
Equities,
Inc.
(Alexandria
Real
Estate)
-
contributed
to
Index-relative
returns.
Realty
Income
invests
in
single-tenant
commercial
properties
in
the
U.S.,
Spain,
and
the
U.K.,
while
Alexandria
Real
Estate
invests
in
office
and

buildings
with
life
sciences
and

tenants.

The

reputable
brokers/dealers.
In
cases
where
a
securi-
ty
is
traded
on
more
than
one
exchange,
the
security
is

securities
for

(or
at

an
official
closing

and
if
there
was
no

in
the
security
on
a
given
day
and
if
there
is
no
official
closing
price
from
relevant
markets
for
that
day,
the
security
is
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
last
reported

and
asked
prices
if
such
bid
and
asked

are
available
on
the
rel-
evant

An
unlisted
equity
security
that
does
not
trade
on
the
valuation
date
and
for
which
bid
and
asked
prices
from
the
relevant

are
unavailable
is
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
current
bid
and
asked
prices
obtained
from
one
or
more
reputable
brokers/dealers;
(3)
fixed
income
securities
may
be
valued
by
an
outside
pricing
service/vendor
approved
by
the
Trust’s
Board
of
Trustees
(the
“Trustees”).
The
pricing
service/vendor
may
employ
a
pricing
model
that
takes
into
account,
among
other
things,
bids,
yield
spreads
and/or
other
market
data
and
specific
security
characteristics.
If
Morgan
Stanley
Investment
Management
Inc.
(the
“Adviser”)
a
whol-
ly-owned
subsidiary
of
Morgan
Stanley,
determines
that
the
price
provided
by
the
outside
pricing
service/vendor
or
exchange
does
not
reflect
the
security’s
fair
value
or
is
unable
to
provide
a
price,
prices
from
brokers
or
dealers
may
also
be
utilized.
In
these
circumstances,
the
value
of
the
security
will
be
the
mean
of

obtained
from
reputable brokers/dealers;

as

In
connection
with
Rule
2a-5
of
the
Act,
the
Trust-
ees
have
designated
the
Trust's
Adviser
as
its
valuation
designee.
The
valuation
designee
has
responsibility
for
determining
fair
value
and
to
make
the
actual
calculations
pursuant
to
the
fair
valuation
methodologies
previously
approved
by
the
Trustees.
Under
procedures
approved
by
the
Trustees,
the
Trust’s
Adviser
has
formed
a
Valuation
Committee
whose
members
are
approved
by
the
Trustees.
The
Valuation
Committee
provides
administration
and
oversight
of
the
Trust’s
valuation
policies
and
procedures,
which
are
reviewed
at
least
annually
by
the
Trustees.
These
procedures
allow
the Trust
to
utilize
independent
pricing
services,

and
financial
instrument
dealers
and
other
market
sources

Fair
Value
Measurement:
Financial
Accounting
Stan-
dards
Board
(“FASB”)
Accounting
Standards
Codifica-
tion
TM
("ASC"),
“Fair
Value
Measurement”
(“ASC
820”),
defines
fair
value
as
the
price
that
would
be
received
to
sell
an
asset
or
pay to
transfer
a
liability
in
an orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measure-
ment
date. ASC
820
establishes
a
three tier
hierarchy
to
distinguish
between
(1)
inputs
that
reflect
the
assump-
tions
market
participants
would
use
in
valuing
an
asset
or
liability
developed
based
on
market
data
obtained
from
sources
independent
of
the
reporting
entity
(observable
inputs)
and
(2)
inputs
that
reflect
the
reporting
entity’s
own
assumptions
about
the
assumptions
market
partici-
pants
would
use
in
valuing
an
asset
or
liability
developed
based
on
the
best
information
available
in
the
circum-
stances
(unobservable
inputs)
and
to
establish
classifica-
tion
of
fair
value
measurements
for
disclosure
purposes.
Various
inputs
are
used
in
determining
the
value
of
the
Fund’s
investments.
The
inputs
are
summarized
in
the
three
broad
levels
listed
below:
Level
1
unadjusted
quoted
prices
in
active
markets
for
identical
investments.
Level
2
-
other
significant
observable
inputs
(includ-
ing
quoted
prices
for
similar
investments,
interest
rates,
prepayment
speeds,
credit
risk,
etc.)
 Level
3
-
significant
unobservable
inputs
including
the
Fund’s
own
assumptions
in
determin-
ing
the
fair
value
of
investments.
Factors
considered
in
making
this
determination
may
include,
but
are
not
limited
to,
infor-
mation
obtained
by
contacting
the
issuer,
analysts,
or
the
appropriate
stock
exchange
(for
exchange-traded
securities),
analysis
of
the
issuer’s
financial
statements
or
other
available
documents
and,
if
necessary,
available
information
concerning
other
securities
in
similar
circumstances.
The
inputs
or
methodology
used
for
valuing
securities
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
associated
with
investing
in
those
securities
and
the
determination
of
the
significance
of
a
particular
input
to
the
fair
value
mea-
surement
in
its
entirety
requires
judgment
and
considers
factors
specific
to
each
security. 
The
following
is
a
summary
of
the
inputs
used
to
value
the
Fund's
investments
as
of
September
30,
2023:
Transfers
between
investment
levels
may
occur
as
the
markets
fluctuate
and/or
the
availability
of
data
used
in
an
investment’s
valuation
changes. 
3.
Indemnifications:
The Trust
enters
into
contracts
that
contain
a
variety
of
indemnification
clauses.
The
Trust’s
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
un-
known
as
this
would
involve
future
claims
that
may
be
made
against
the
Fund
that
have
not yet
occurred. 
4.
Dividends
and
Distributions
to
Shareholders: 
Divi-
dends
and
distributions
to
shareholders
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Dividends
from
net
investment
in-
come,
if
any,
are
declared
and
paid
quarterly.
Net
realized
capital
gains,
if
any,
are
distributed
at
least
annually.
5.
Security
Transactions,
Income
and
Expenses:
 Se-
curity
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
the
trade
date
(date
the
order
to
buy
or
sell
is
executed).
Realized
gains
and
losses
on
the
sale
of
investment
securities
are
deter-
mined
on
the
specific
identified
cost
method.
Dividend
income
and
other
distributions
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date
(except
for
certain
foreign
dividends
which
may
be
recorded
as
soon
as
the
Fund
is
informed
of
such
dividends)
net
of
applicable
withholding
taxes.
Non-cash
dividends
received
in
the
form
of
stock,
if
any,
are
recognized
on
the
ex-dividend
date
and
recorded
as
non-cash
dividend
income
at
fair
value.

 As
compensation
for
its
services,
the
Adviser
is paid
monthly
at
the
annual
rate
of
0.15% of
the
average
daily
net
assets
of
the
Fund.
Under
the
Agreement,
the
Adviser pays sub-
stantially
all
the
expenses
of
the
Fund
(including
expenses
of
the
Trust
relating
to
the
Fund),
except
for
the
distribution
fees,
if
any,
brokerage
expenses,
acquired
fund
fees
and
expenses,
taxes,
interest,
litigation
expenses,
and
other
extraordinary
expenses,
including
the
costs
of
proxies,
not
incurred
in
the
ordinary
course
of
the
Fund’s
business. 
C.
Distribution
and
Shareholder Services
Plan:
The
Trustees
have
adopted
a
distribution
and
services
plan
("Plan")
pursuant
Rule
12b-1
under the
Act. 
Under the
Plan,
the
Fund
is
authorized
to
pay
distribution
fees
in
connection
with
the
sale
of
its
shares
and
pay
service
fees
in
connection
with
the
provision
of
ongoing
services
to
shareholders
of
the
Fund
and
the
maintenance
of
shareholder
accounts
in
an
amount
up
to
0.25%
of
its
average
daily
net
assets.
No
Rule
12b-1
fees
are
currently
paid
by
the
Fund
and
there
are
no
current
plans
to
impose
these
fees.
D.
Dividend
Disbursing
and
Transfer
Agent:
The
Trust’s
dividend
disbursing
and
transfer
agent
is
JPMorgan
Chase
Bank,
N.A.
("JPMorgan").
E.
Custodian
and
Administrator:
JPMorgan also
serves
as
Custodian
and
Administrator for
the
Trust in
accordance
with
a
Custodian
and
Administration Agreement.
F.
Issuance
and
Redemption
of
Fund
Shares:
The
Fund
is
an
exchange-traded
fund
or
ETF.
Individual
Fund
shares
may
only
be
purchased
and
sold
on
a
national
securi-
ties
exchange
through
a
broker-dealer
and
investors
may
pay
a
commission
to
such
broker-dealers
in
connection
with
their
purchase
or
sale.
The
price
of
Fund
shares
is
based
on
market
price,
and
because
ETF
shares
trade
at
market
prices
rather
than
NAV,
shares
may
trade
at
a
price
greater
than
NAV
(a
premium)
or
less
than
NAV
(a
discount). 
The
Fund
will
only
issue
or
redeem
shares
aggregated
into
blocks
of 50,000
shares
or
multiples
thereof
(“Creation
Units”)
to
Authorized
Participants
who
have
entered
into
agreements
with
the
Funds’
Distributor.
An
Authorized
Participant
is
either
(1)
a
“Participating
Party,”
(i.e.,
a
broker-dealer
or
other
participant
in
the
clearing
process
of
the
Continuous
Net
Settlement
System
of
the
National
Securities
Clearing
Corpo-
ration)
(“Clearing
Process”),
or
(2)
a
participant
of
Depository
Trust
Company (“DTC
Participant”),
and,
in
each
case,
must
have
executed
an
agreement
(“Participation
Agreement”)
with
the
Distributor
with
respect
to
creations
and
redemptions
of
Creation
Units.
The
Fund
will
issue
or
redeem
Creation
Units
in
return
for
a
basket
of
assets
that
the
Fund
specifies
each
day.
Shares
are
listed
on
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange Arca
("NYSE
Arca") and
are
publicly
traded.
If an
investor buys
or
sells
Fund
shares
on
the
secondary
market, the
investor will
pay
or
receive
the
market
price,
which
may
be
higher
or
lower
than
NAV. The
investor's transaction
will
be
priced
at
NAV
if the
investor purchases
or
redeems
Fund
shares
in
Creation
Units.
Authorized
Participants
purchasing
and
redeeming
Creation
Units
may
pay
a
purchase
transaction
fee
and
a
redemption
transaction
fee
directly
to
the
Fund's
Administrator
to
offset
transfer
and
other
transaction
costs
associated
with
the
issuance
and
redemption
of
Creation
Units,
including
Creation
Units
for
cash.
Additionally,
a
portion
of
the
transaction
fee
is
used
to
offset
transactional
costs
typically
accrued
in
the
Fund's
cus-
tody
expenses
directly
related
to
the
issuance
and
redemption
of
Creation
Units.
An
additional
variable
fee
may
be
charged
for
certain
transactions.
Such
fees
would
be
included
in
the
re-
ceivable
for
capital
shares
issued
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities
if
they
are
outstanding
as
of
year-
end. Transaction
fees
assessed
during
the
period
are
included
in
the
proceeds
from
shares
issued
on
the
Statements
of
Changes
in
Net
Assets.

The
Fund
invests
in
the
Institutional
Class
of
the
Morgan

are
reduced
by
an
amount
equal

H.
Federal
Income
Taxes:
It
is
the
Fund’s
intention
to
continue
to
qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company
and
distribute
all
of
its
taxable
and
tax
exempt income.
Accordingly,
no
provision
for
federal
income
taxes
is
required
in
the
finan-
cial
statements. 
The
Fund
may
be
subject
to
taxes
imposed
by
countries
in
which
it
invests.
Such
taxes
are
generally
based
on
income
and/
or
capital
gains
earned
or
repatriated.
Taxes
are
accrued
based
on
net
investment
income,
net
realized
gains
and
net
unreal-
ized
appreciation
as
such
income
and/or
gains
are
earned.
Taxes
may
also
be
based
on
transactions
in
foreign
currency
and
are
accrued
based
on
the
value
of
investments
denominated
in
such
currency.
FASB
ASC
740-10,
“Income
Taxes—Overall”,
sets
forth
a
minimum
threshold
for
financial
statement
recognition
of
the
benefit
of
a
tax
position
taken
or
expected
to
be
taken
in
a
tax
return.
Management
has
concluded
there
are
no
significant
uncertain
tax
positions
that
would
require
recognition
in
the
financial
statements.
If
applicable,
the
Fund
recognizes
inter-
est
accrued
related
to
unrecognized
tax
benefits
in
“Interest
Expense”
and
penalties
in
“Other
Expenses”
in
the
Statement
of
Operations.
The
Fund
files
tax
returns
with
the
U.S.
Internal
Revenue
Service,
New
York
and
various
states.
The
tax
year
ended
September
30,
2023 remains
subject
to
examination
by
taxing
authorities.
The
tax
character
of
distributions
paid
may
differ
from
the
character
of
distributions
shown
for
GAAP
purposes
due
to
short-term
capital
gains
being
treated
as
ordinary
income
for
tax
purposes.
The
tax
character
of
distributions
paid
during
fiscal
year 2023
was
as
follows: 
The
amount
and
character
of
income
and
gains
to
be
distrib-
uted
are
determined
in
accordance
with
income
tax
regulations
which
may
differ
from
GAAP.
These
book/tax
differences
are
either
considered
temporary
or
permanent
in
nature. 
Temporary
differences
are
attributable
to
differing
book
and
tax
treatments
for
the
timing
of
the
recognition
of
gains
(loss-
es)
on
certain
investment
transactions
and
the
timing
of
the
deductibility
of
certain
expenses. 
Permanent
differences,
due
to
a
tax
adjustment
related
to
an
in-kind
redemption,
resulted
in
the
following
reclassifications
among
the
components
of
net
assets
at
September
30,
2023:
At
September
30,
2023,
the
components
of
distributable
earn-
ings
for
the
Fund
on
a
tax
basis
were
as
follows: 
At
September
30,
2023,
the
Fund
had
available
for
fed-
eral
income
tax
purposes
unused
short-term
capital
losses
of $500,081 that
do
not
have
an

I.
Principal
Risks:
Market
Risk:
An
investment
in
the
Fund
is
based
on
the
values
of
the
Fund’s
investments,
which
may
change
due
to
economic
and
other
events
that
affect
markets
generally,
as
well
as
those
that
affect
particular
regions,
countries,
industries,
companies
or
governments.
The
risks
associated
with
these
developments
may
be
magnified
if
social,
political,
economic
and
other
conditions
and
events
(such
as
war,
natural
disasters,
health
emergencies
(e.g.,
epidemics
and
pandemics),
terrorism,
conflicts,
social
unrest,
recessions,
inflation,
rapid
interest
rate
changes
and
supply
chain
disruptions)
adversely
interrupt
the
global
economy
and
financial
markets.
It
is
difficult
to
predict
when
events
affecting
the
U.S.
or
global
financial
markets
may
occur,
the
effects
that
such
events
may
have
and
the
duration
of
those
effects
(which
may
last
for
extended
periods).
These
events
may
negatively
impact
broad
segments
of
businesses
and
populations
and
have
a
significant
and
rapid
negative
impact
on
the
performance
of
the
Fund’s
investments,
adverse-
ly
affect
and
increase
the
volatility
of
the
Fund’s
share
price
and
exacerbate
pre-existing
risks
to
the
Fund.

duration
and
extent
of
these
or
other
types
of
adverse
econom-
ic
and
market
conditions
and
uncertainty
over
the
long
term
cannot
be
reasonably
projected
or
estimated
at
this
time.
The
ultimate
impact
of
public
health
emergencies
or
other
adverse
economic
or
market
developments
and
the
extent
to
which
the
associated
conditions
impact
the
Fund
and
its
investments
will
also
depend
on
other
future
developments,
which
are
highly
uncertain,
difficult
to
accurately
predict
and
subject
to
change
at
any
time.
The
financial
performance
of
the
Fund’s
invest-
ments
(and,
in
turn,
the
Fund’s
investment
results)
as
well
as
their
liquidity
may
be
adversely
affected
because
of
these
and
similar
types
of
factors
and
developments.
Tracking
Error
Risk:
Tracking
error
risk
refers
to
the
risk
that
the
Fund’s
performance
may
not
match
or
correlate
to
that
of
the
index
it
attempts
to
track,
either
on
a
daily
or
aggregate
basis.
Tracking
error
may
occur
because
of
transac-
tion
costs,
the
Fund’s
holding
of
cash,
differences
in
accrual
of
dividends,
changes
to
the
index
or
the
need
to
meet
new
or
existing
regulatory
requirements.
Factors
such
as
Fund
expens-
es,
imperfect
correlation
between
the
Fund’s
investments
and
the
index,
rounding
of
share
prices,
changes
to
the
composition
of
the
index,
regulatory
policies,
limitations
on
Fund
invest-
ments
imposed
by
Fund
diversification
and/or
concentration
policies,
high
portfolio
turnover
rate
and
the
use
of
leverage
all
contribute
to
tracking
error.
Unlike
the
Fund,
the
returns
of
the
index
are
not
reduced
by
investment
and
other
operating
expenses,
including
the
trading
costs
associated
with
imple-
menting
changes
to
its
portfolio
of
investments.
Tracking
error
risk
may
cause
the
Fund’s
performance
to
be
less
than
expected.
Tracking
error
risk
may
be
heightened
during
times
of
market
volatility,
unusual
market
conditions
or
other
abnormal
cir-
cumstances.
The
Fund
may
be
required
to
deviate
its
invest-
ments
from
the
securities
and
relative
weightings
of
the
index
to
comply
with
applicable
laws
and
regulations
or
because
of
market
restrictions
or
other
legal
reasons,
including
regulatory
limits
or
other
restrictions
on
securities
that
may
be
purchased
by
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates.
If
the
Fund
uses
a
sampling
method
of
indexing,
it
may
have
a
larger
tracking
error
than
if
it
used
a
replication
method
of
indexing.
Index
Related
Risk:
The
Fund’s
return
may
not
track
the
return
of
the
index
for
a
number
of
reasons
and
therefore
may
not
achieve
its
investment
objective.
For
example,
the
Fund
incurs
a
number
of
operating
expenses
not
applicable
to
the
index,
and
incurs
costs
in
buying
and
selling
securities,
espe-
cially
when
rebalancing
the
Fund’s
securities
holdings
to
reflect
changes
in
the
composition
of
the
index.
In
addition,
the
Fund’s
return
may
differ
from
the
return
of
the
index
because
of,
among
other
things,
pricing
differences
and
the
inability
to
purchase
certain
securities
included
in
the
underlying index
due
to
regulatory
or
other
restrictions. 
In
addition,
when
the
Fund
uses
a
representative
sampling
ap-
proach,
the
Fund
may
not
be
as
well
correlated
with
the
return
of
the
underlying
index
as
when
the
Fund
purchases
all
of
the
securities
in
the
index
in
the
proportions
in
which
they
are
rep-
resented
in
the
index.
Errors
in
the
construction
or
calculation
of
the
index
may
occur
from
time
to
time.
Any
such
errors
may
not
be
identified
and
corrected
by
the
index
provider
for
some
period
of
time,
which
may
have
an
adverse
impact
on
the
Fund
and
its
shareholders.
The
risk
that
the
Fund
may
not
track
the
performance
of
the
index
may
be
heightened
during
times
of
increased
market
volatility
or
other
unusual
market
conditions.
Authorized
Participant
Concentration
Risk:
Only
an
authorized
participant
may
engage
in
creation
or
redemption
transactions
directly
with
the
Fund.
The
Fund
has
a
limited
number
of
intermediaries
that
act
as
authorized
participants
and
none
of
these
authorized
participants
is
or
will
be
obligated
to
engage
in
creation
or
redemption
transactions.
To
the
extent
that
these
intermediaries
exit
the
business
or
are
unable
to
or
choose
not
to
proceed
with
creation
and/or
redemption
orders
with
respect
to
the
Fund
and
no
other
authorized
participant
creates
or
redeems,
shares
may
trade
at
a
discount
to NAV
and
possibly
face
trading
halts
and/or
delisting. 
Trading
Risk:
The
market
prices
of
shares
are
expected
to
fluctuate,
in
some
cases
materially,
in
response
to
changes
in
the
Fund’s
NAV,
the
intra-day
value
of
the
Fund’s
holdings,
and
supply
and
demand
for
shares.
The
Adviser
cannot
predict
whether
shares
will
trade
above,
below
or
at
their
NAV.
Disrup-
tions
to
creations
and
redemptions,
the
existence
of
significant
market
volatility
or
potential
lack
of
an
active
trading
market
for
the
shares
(including
through
a
trading
halt),
as
well
as
other
factors,
may
result
in
the
shares
trading
significantly
above
(at
a
premium)
or
below
(at
a
discount)
to
NAV
or
to
the
intraday
value
of
the
Fund’s
holdings
(and,
as
a
result,
an
investor
may
pay
more
for,
or
receive
less
than,
the
underlying
value
of
the
shares,
respectively).
Buying
or
selling
shares
in
the
secondary
market
may
require
paying
brokerage
commissions
or
other
charges
imposed
by
brokers
as
determined
by
that
broker.
Brokerage
commissions
are
often
a
fixed
amount
and
may
be
a
significant
proportional
cost
when
seeking
to
buy
or
sell
relatively
small
amounts
of
shares.
In
addition,
the
market
price
of
shares,
like
the
price
of
any
exchange-traded
security,
includes
a
“bid-ask
spread”
charged
by
the
market
makers
or
other
participants
that
trade
the
particular
security.
The
spread
of the
Fund’s
shares
varies
over
time
based
on
the
Fund’s
trad-
ing
volume
and
market
liquidity
and
may
increase
if
the
Fund’s

ETF
Trust
trading
volume,
the
spread
of
the
Fund’s
underlying
securities,
or
market
liquidity
decrease. 
Large
Shareholder
Transaction
Risk:
The
Fund
may
experience
adverse
effects
when
certain
shareholders
purchase
or
redeem
large
amounts
of
shares
of the
Fund.
In
addition,
a
third
party
investor,
the
Adviser
or
an
affiliate
of
the
Adviser,
an
authorized
participant,
a
lead
market
maker,
or
another
entity
(i.e.,
a
seed
investor)
may
invest
in
the
Fund
and
hold
its
investment
solely
to
facilitate
commencement
of
the
Fund
or
to
facilitate
the
Fund’s
achieving
a
specified
size
or
scale.
Any
such
investment
may
be
held
for
a
limited
period
of
time.
There
can
be
no
assurance
that
any
large
shareholder
would
not
redeem
its
investment,
that
the
size
of
the
Fund
would
be
maintained
at
such
levels
or
that
the
Fund
would
continue
to
meet
applicable
listing
requirements.
Such
larger
than
normal
redemptions
may
cause
the
Fund
to
sell
portfolio
securities
at
times
when
it
would
not
otherwise
do
so,
which
may
negative-
ly
impact
the
Fund’s
NAV
and
liquidity.
Similarly,
large
Fund
share
purchases
may
adversely
affect the
Fund’s
performance
to
the
extent
that the
Fund
is
delayed
in
investing
new
cash
and
is
required
to
maintain
a
larger
cash
position
than
it
ordinarily
would.
These
transactions
may
also
accelerate
the
realization
of
taxable
income
to
shareholders
if
such
sales
of
investments
resulted
in
gains
and
may
also
increase
transaction
costs.
In
addition,
a
large
redemption
could
result
in the
Fund’s
current
expenses
being
allocated
over
a
smaller
asset
base,
leading
to
an
increase
in the
Fund’s
expense
ratio.
Although
large
shareholder
transactions
may
be
more
frequent
under
certain
circumstanc-
es, the
Fund
is
generally
subject
to
the
risk
that
shareholders
can
purchase
or
redeem
a
significant
percentage
of
Fund
shares
at
any
time.
In
addition,
transactions
by
large
shareholders
may
account
for
a
large
percentage
of
the
trading
volume
on
NYSE
Arca
and
may,
therefore,
have
a
material
upward
or
downward
effect
on
the
market
price
of
the
shares. 
J.
Other:
At
September
30,
2023,
the
Fund
had
record
own-
ers
of
10%
or
greater,
which
are
related
parties
of
the

In-
vestment
activities
of
these
shareholders
could
have
a
material
impact
on
the
Fund.
The

of
such

was

Opinion
on

We
have
audited
the
accompanying
statement
of
assets
and
liabilities
of
Calvert
US
Mid-Cap
Core
Responsible
Index
ETF
(the
“Fund”)
(one
of

including
the
portfolio
of
investments,
as
of
September

2023,
and
the
related
statements
of
operations
and
changes
in

and
the
financial
highlights
for
the
period
from
January

(commencement
of

through
September
30,
2023,
and
the
related
notes
(collectively
referred
to
as
the
“financial
statements”).
In
our
opinion,
the
financial
statements
present
fairly,
in
all
material
respects,
the
financial
position
of
the
Fund
(one
of
the
funds
constituting
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust)
at
September
30,
2023,
and
the
results
of
its
operations,
the
changes
in
its
net
assets
and
its
financial
highlights
for
the
period
from
January
30,
2023
(commencement
of
operations)
through
September
30,
2023,
in
conformity
with
U.S.
generally
accepted
accounting
principles.
Basis
for
Opinion
These
financial
statements
are
the
responsibility
of
the
Trust’s
management.
Our
responsibility
is
to
express
an
opinion
on
the
Fund’s
financial
statements
based
on
our
audit.
We
are
a
public
accounting
firm
registered
with
the
Public
Company
Accounting
Oversight
Board
(United
States)
(“PCAOB”)
and
are
required
to
be
independent
with
respect
to
the
Trust
in
accordance
with
the
U.S.
federal
securities
laws
and
the
applicable
rules
and
regulations
of
the
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
and
the
PCAOB.
We
conducted
our
audit
in
accordance
with
the
standards
of
the
PCAOB.
Those
standards
require
that
we
plan
and
perform
the
audit
to
obtain
reasonable
assurance
about
whether
the
financial
statements
are
free
of
material
misstatement,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud.
The
Trust
is
not
required
to
have,
nor
were
we
engaged
to
perform,
an
audit
of
the
Trust’s
internal
control
over
financial
reporting.
As
part
of
our
audit,
we
are
required
to
obtain
an
understanding
of
internal
control
over
financial
reporting,
but
not
for
the
purpose
of
expressing
an
opinion
on
the
effectiveness
of
the
Trust’s
internal
control
over
financial
reporting.
Accordingly,
we
express
no
such
opinion.
Our
audit
included
performing
procedures
to
assess
the
risks
of
material
misstatement
of
the
financial
statements,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud,
and
performing
procedures
that
respond
to
those
risks.
Such
procedures
included
examining,
on
a
test
basis,
evidence
regarding
the
amounts
and
disclosures
in
the
financial
statements.
Our
procedures
included
confirmation
of
securities
owned
as
of
September
30,
2023,
by
correspondence
with
the
custodian,
brokers
and
others;
when
replies
were
not
received
from
brokers
and
others,
we
performed
other
auditing
procedures.
Our
audit
also
included
evaluating
the
accounting
principles
used
and
significant
estimates
made
by
management,
as
well
as
evaluating
the
overall
presentation
of
the
financial
statements.
We
believe
that
our
audit
provides
a
reasonable
basis
for
our
opinion.
We
have
served
as
the

of

or
more

and

September

2023.
Morgan

Investment
Management,
the
Fund's
investment

a
client-centric,
investor-led
organization.
Our
global

intellectual
capital,

Expense
Example
(unaudited)
Calvert
US
Select
Equity
ETF
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust
As
a
shareholder
of
the
Fund,
you
incur
two
types
of
costs:
(1)
transactional
costs;
and
(2)
ongoing
costs,
which
may
include man-
agement
fees,
and
distribution
and
shareholder
services
fees.
This
example
is
intended
to
help
you
understand
your
ongoing
costs
(in
dollars)
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
to
compare
these
costs
with
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
other
funds.
This
example
is
based
on
an
investment
of
$1,000
invested
at
the
beginning
of
the
six-month
period
ended
September
30,
2023 and
held
for
the
entire
six-month
period.
Actual
Expenses
The
table
below
provides
information
about
actual
account
values
and
actual
expenses.
You
may
use
the
information
in
this
table,
together
with
the
amount
you
invested,
to
estimate
the
expenses
that
you
paid
over
the
period.
Simply
divide
your
account
value
by
$1,000
(for
example,
an
$8,600
account
value
divided
by
$1,000
=
8.6),
then
multiply
the
result
by
the
number
in
the
table
under
the
heading
entitled
“Actual
Expenses
Paid
During
Period”
to
estimate
the
expenses
you
paid
on
your
account
during
this
period.
Hypothetical Example
for
Comparison
Purposes
The
table
below
provides
information
about
hypothetical
account
values
and
hypothetical
expenses
based
on
the
Fund’s
actual
expense
ratio
and
an
assumed
rate
of
return
of
5%
per
year
before
expenses,
which
is
not
the
Fund’s
actual
return.
The
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
may
not
be
used
to
estimate
the
actual
ending
account
balance
or
expenses
you
paid
for
the
period.
You
may
use
this
information
to
compare
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
other
funds.
To
do
so,
compare
this
5%
hypothetical
example
with
the
5%
hypothetical
examples
that
appear
in
the
shareholder
reports
of
the
other
funds. 
Please
note
that
the
expenses
shown
in
the
table
are
meant
to
highlight
your
ongoing
costs
only
and
do
not
reflect
any
transactional
costs,
such
as
sales
charges
(loads).
Therefore,
the
information
for
each
class
in
the
table
is
useful
in
comparing
ongoing
costs
only,
and
will
not
help
you
determine
the
relative
total
costs
of
owning
different
funds.
In
addition,
if
these
transactional
costs
were
included,
your
costs
would
have
been
higher.

Overview
(unaudited)
Calvert
US
Select
Equity

Trust
Economic
and
Market
Conditions
For
U.S.
equity
investors,
the
8-month
period
ended
September
30,
2023,
was
a
roller-coaster
ride,
driven
largely
by
shifting
perceptions
of
whether
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(the
Fed)
could
bring
the
world’s
largest
economy
in
for
a
soft
landing,
and
changing
expectations
of
how
long
interest
rates
might
remain
high.
As
the
period
opened,
U.S.
stocks
were
in
the
midst
of
a
rally
that
lasted
through
July
2023.
The
initial
tailwind
was
ChatGPT,
an
artificial
intelligence
(AI)
application
that
led
investors
to
perceive
AI
might
become
the
next
big
innovation
to
drive
the
information
technology
(IT)
sector.
As
a
result,
IT
-
one
of
the
worst-performing
sectors
in
2022
-
became
the
standout
sector
during
the
first
half
of
2023.
Earlier
recession
fears
that
had
weighed
on
stock
prices
receded
as
many
inves-
tors
came
around
to
the
view
that
the
U.S.
economy
was
doing
surprisingly
well.
But
in
the
final
two
months
of
the
period,
the
bond
market
halted
the
stock
market’s
momentum.
As
it
became
clear
the
Fed
would
keep
interest
rates
higher
for
longer
than
investors
had
anticipated
just
a
few
months
earlier,
longer
term
bond
rates
rose.
Given
the
potential
for
relatively
attractive
returns
with
lower
risk
than
stocks,
many
investors
shifted
from
equity
assets
to
bonds,
and
stock
prices
ended
on
a
down
note
as
the
period
came
to
a
close.
For
the
period
as
a
whole,
however,
the
August-September
stock
market
retreat
did
not
totally
erase
previous
gains,
and
the
Russell
1000®
Index,
a
measure
of
U.S.
large-cap
stocks,
returned
a
respectable
7.55%.
Fund
Performance
For
the
8-month
period
from
inception
on
January
30,
2023,
through
September
30,
2023,
Calvert
US
Select
Equity
ETF
(the
Fund)
returned
3.00%
for
shares
based
on
net
asset
value
(NAV)
and
reinvestment
of
distributions
per
share,
net
of
fees.
The
Fund
underperformed
its
benchmark,
the
Russell
1000®
Index
(the
Index),
which
returned
7.55%.
Security
selections
in
the
Fund
detracted
most
from
returns
rel-
ative
to
the
Index
during
the
period.
Selections
in
the
consum-
er
discretionary,
financials,
and
communication
services
sectors
particularly
weighed
on
relative
performance.
Although
sector
allocations
overall
were
beneficial,
overweight
exposures
to
the
financials
and
real
estate
sectors
-
among
the
worst-performing
sectors
within
the
Index
during
the
period
-
also
detracted
from
relative
returns
during
the
period.
Within
the
Fund’s
sector
allocations,
an
overweight
exposure
to
the
information
technology
(IT)
sector
-
the
strongest
perform-
ing
sector
within
the
Index
during
the
period
-
was
especially
beneficial.
While
security
selections
overall
detracted,
selections
in
the
industrials
and
IT
sectors
also
contributed
to
relative
returns
during
the
period.

Security
Valuation:
(1)
An
equity
portfolio
security
list-
ed
or
traded
on
an
exchange
is
valued
at
its
latest
reported
sales
price
(or
at
the
exchange
official
closing
price
if
such
exchange
reports
an
official
closing
price),
and
if
there
were
no
sales
on
a
given
day
and
if
there
is
no
official
ex-
change
closing
price
for
that
day,
the
security
is
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
last
reported
bid
and
asked
prices
if
such
bid
and
asked
prices
are
available
on
the
relevant
ex-
changes.
If
only
bid
prices
are
available
then
the
latest
bid
price
may
be
used.
Listed
equity
securities
not
traded
on
the
valuation
date
with
no
reported
bid
and
asked
prices
available
on
the
exchange
are
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
current
bid
and
asked
prices
obtained
from
one
or
more
reputable
brokers/dealers.
In
cases
where
a
securi-
ty
is
traded
on
more
than
one
exchange,
the
security
is
valued
on
the
exchange
designated
as
the
primary
market;
(2)
all
other
equity
portfolio
securities
for
which
over-the-
counter
(“OTC”)
market
quotations
are
readily
available
are
valued
at
the
latest
reported
sales
price
(or
at
the
mar-
ket
official
closing
price
if
such
market
reports
an
official
closing
price),
and
if
there
was
no
trading
in
the
security
on
a
given
day
and
if
there
is
no
official
closing
price
from
relevant
markets
for
that
day,
the
security
is
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
last
reported
bid
and
asked
prices
if
such
bid
and
asked
prices
are
available
on
the
rel-
evant
markets.
An
unlisted
equity
security
that
does
not
trade
on
the
valuation
date
and
for
which
bid
and
asked
prices
from
the
relevant
markets
are
unavailable
is
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
current
bid
and
asked
prices
obtained
from
one
or
more
reputable
brokers/dealers;
(3)
fixed
income
securities
may
be
valued
by
an
outside
pricing
service/vendor
approved
by
the
Trust’s
Board
of
Trustees
(the
“Trustees”).
The
pricing
service/vendor
may
employ
a
pricing
model
that
takes
into
account,
among
other
things,
bids,
yield
spreads
and/or
other
market
data
and
specific
security
characteristics.
If
Morgan
Stanley
Investment
Management
Inc.
(the
“Adviser”)
a
whol-
ly-owned
subsidiary
of
Morgan
Stanley,
determines
that
the
price
provided
by
the
outside
pricing
service/vendor
or
exchange
does
not
reflect
the
security’s
fair
value
or
is
unable
to
provide
a
price,
prices
from
brokers
or
dealers
may
also
be
utilized.
In
these
circumstances,
the
value
of
the
security
will
be
the
mean
of
bid
and
asked
prices
obtained
from
reputable brokers/dealers;
(4)
when
market
quotations
are
not
readily
available,
as
defined
by
Rule
2a-5
under
the
Act,
including
circumstances
under
which
the
Adviser
determines
that
the
closing
price,
last
sale
price
or
the
mean
between
the
last
reported
bid
and
asked
prices
are
not
reflective
of
a

market
value,
port-

securities
are
valued
at
their
fair
value
as
determined
in
good

under

supervision
of
the

(5)

Stanley
Institutional
Liquidity
Funds,
are
valued
at
the
net

value
(“NAV”)
as
of
the
close
of
each
business
day.
In
connection
with
Rule
2a-5
of
the
Act,
the
Trust-
ees
have
designated
the
Trust's
Adviser
as
its
valuation
designee.
The
valuation
designee
has
responsibility
for
determining
fair
value
and
to
make
the
actual
calculations
pursuant
to
the
fair
valuation
methodologies
previously
approved
by
the
Trustees.
Under
procedures
approved
by
the
Trustees,
the
Trust’s
Adviser
has
formed
a
Valuation
Committee
whose
members
are
approved
by
the
Trustees.
The
Valuation
Committee
provides
administration
and
oversight
of
the
Trust’s
valuation
policies
and
procedures,
which
are
reviewed
at
least
annually
by
the
Trustees.
These
procedures
allow
the Trust
to
utilize
independent

services,

from

and

and
other
market
sources

Fair
Value
Measurement:

Stan-
dards
Board
(“FASB”)
Accounting
Standards
Codifica-
tion
TM
("ASC"),
“Fair
Value
Measurement”
(“ASC
820”),
defines
fair
value
as
the
price
that
would
be
received
to
sell
an
asset
or
pay to
transfer
a
liability
in
an orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measure-
ment
date. ASC
820
establishes
a
three tier
hierarchy
to
distinguish
between
(1)
inputs
that
reflect
the
assump-
tions
market
participants
would
use
in
valuing
an
asset
or
liability
developed
based
on
market
data
obtained
from
sources
independent
of

and
(2)
inputs
that
reflect
the

own
assumptions
about
the
assumptions
market

pants
would

in
valuing
an

developed
based

available
in

circum-
stances
(unobservable
inputs)
and
to
establish
classifica-
tion
of

value
measurements
for
disclosure
purposes.
Various
inputs
are
used
in
determining
the
value
of
the
Fund’s
investments.
The
inputs
are
summarized
in
the
three
broad
levels
listed
below:
Level
1
unadjusted
quoted
prices
in
active
markets
for
identical

Level
2
-
other
significant
observable
inputs
(includ-
ing
quoted
prices
for
similar
investments,
interest
rates,
prepayment
speeds,
credit
risk,
etc.)
 Level
3
-
significant
unobservable
inputs
including
the
Fund’s
own
assumptions
in
determin-
ing
the
fair
value
of
investments.
Factors
considered
in
making
this
determination
may
include,
but
are
not
limited
to,
infor-
mation
obtained
by
contacting
the
issuer,
analysts,
or
the
appropriate
stock
exchange
(for
exchange-traded
securities),
analysis
of
the
issuer’s
financial
statements
or
other
available
documents
and,
if
necessary,
available
information
concerning
other
securities
in
similar
circumstances.
The
inputs
or
methodology
used
for
valuing
securities
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
associated
with
investing
in
those
securities
and
the
determination
of
the
significance
of
a
particular
input
to
the
fair
value
mea-
surement
in
its
entirety
requires
judgment
and
considers
factors
specific
to
each
security. 
The
following
is
a
summary
of
the
inputs
used
to
value
the
Fund's
investments
as
of
September
30,
2023:
Transfers
between
investment
levels
may
occur
as
the
markets
fluctuate
and/or
the
availability
of
data
used
in
an
investment’s
valuation
changes. 
3.
Indemnifications:
The Trust
enters
into
contracts
that
contain
a
variety
of
indemnification
clauses.
The
Trust’s
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
un-
known
as
this
would
involve
future
claims
that
may
be
made
against
the
Fund
that
have
not yet
occurred. 
4.
Dividends
and
Distributions
to
Shareholders: 
Divi-
dends
and
distributions
to
shareholders
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Dividends
from
net
investment
in-
come,
if
any,
are
declared
and
paid
quarterly.
Net
realized
capital
gains,
if
any,
are
distributed
at
least
annually.
5.
Security
Transactions,
Income
and
Expenses:
Security
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
the
trade
date
(date
the
order
to
buy
or
sell
is
executed).
Realized
gains
and
losses
on
the
sale
of
investment
securities
are
deter-
mined
on
the
specific
identified
cost
method.
Dividend
income
and
other
distributions
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date
(except
for
certain
foreign
dividends
which
may
be
recorded
as
soon
as
the
Fund
is
informed
of
such
dividends)
net
of
applicable
withholding
taxes.
Non-cash
dividends
received
in
the
form
of
stock,
if
any,
are
recognized
on
the
ex-dividend
date
and
recorded
as
non-cash
dividend
at
fair
value.

ments.
 As
compensation
for
its
services,
the
Adviser
is paid 
monthly
at
the
annual
rate
of
0.29% of
the
average
daily
net
assets
of
the
Fund.
Under
the
Agreement,
the
Adviser pays sub-
stantially
all
the
expenses
of
the
Fund
(including
expenses
of
the
Trust
relating
to
the
Fund),
except
for
the
distribution
fees,
if
any,
brokerage
expenses,
acquired
fund
fees
and
expenses,
taxes,
interest,
litigation
expenses,
and
other
extraordinary
expenses,
including
the
costs
of
proxies,
not
incurred
in
the
ordinary
course
of
the
Fund’s
business. 
C.
Distribution
and
Shareholder Services
Plan:
The
Trustees
have
adopted
a
distribution
and
services
plan
("Plan")
pursuant
Rule
12b-1
under the
Act. 
Under the
Plan,
the
Fund
is
authorized
to
pay
distribution
fees
in
connection
with
the
sale
of
its
shares
and
pay
service
fees
in
connection
with
the
provision
of
ongoing
services
to
shareholders
of
the
Fund
and
the
maintenance
of
shareholder
accounts
in
an
amount
up
to
0.25%
of
its
average
daily
net
assets.
No
Rule
12b-1
fees
are
currently
paid
by
the
Fund
and
there
are
no
current
plans
to
impose
these
fees.
D.
Dividend
Disbursing
and
Transfer
Agent:
The
Trust’s
dividend
disbursing
and
transfer
agent
is
JPMorgan
Chase
Bank,
N.A.
("JPMorgan").
E.
Custodian
and
Administrator:
JPMorgan also
serves
as
Custodian
and
Administrator for
the
Trust in
accordance
with
a
Custodian
and
Administration Agreement.
F.
Issuance
and
Redemption
of
Fund
Shares:
The
Fund
is
an
exchange-traded
fund
or
ETF.
Individual
Fund
shares
may
only
be
purchased
and
sold
on
a
national
securi-
ties
exchange
through
a
broker-dealer
and
investors
may
pay
a
commission
to
such
broker-dealers
in
connection
with
their
purchase
or
sale.
The
price
of
Fund
shares
is
based
on
market
price,
and
because
ETF
shares
trade
at
market
prices
rather
than
NAV,
shares
may
trade
at
a
price
greater
than
NAV
(a
premium)
or
less
than
NAV
(a
discount). 
The
Fund
will
only
issue
or
redeem
shares
aggregated
into
blocks
of 30,000
shares
or
multiples
thereof
(“Creation
Units”)
to
Authorized
Participants
who
have
entered
into
agreements
with
the
Funds’
Distributor.
An
Authorized
Participant
is
either
(1)
a
“Participating
Party,”
(i.e.,
a
broker-dealer
or
other
participant
in
the
clearing
process
of
the
Continuous
Net
Settlement
System
of
the
National
Securities
Clearing
Corpo-
ration)
(“Clearing
Process”),
or
(2)
a
participant
of
Depository
Trust
Company (“DTC
Participant”),
and,
in
each
case,
must
have
executed
an
agreement
(“Participation
Agreement”)
with
the
Distributor
with
respect
to
creations
and
redemptions
of
Creation
Units.
The
Fund
will
issue
or
redeem
Creation
Units
in
return
for
a
basket
of
assets
that
the
Fund
specifies
each
day.
Shares
are
listed
on
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange Arca
("NYSE
Arca") and
are
publicly
traded.
If an
investor buys
or
sells
Fund
shares
on
the
secondary
market, the
investor will
pay
or
receive
the
market
price,
which
may
be
higher
or
lower
than
NAV. The
investor's transaction
will
be
priced
at
NAV
if the
investor purchases
or
redeems
Fund
shares
in
Creation
Units.
Authorized
Participants
purchasing
and
redeeming
Creation
Units
may
pay
a
purchase
transaction
fee
and
a
redemption
transaction
fee
directly
to
the
Fund's
Administrator
to
offset
transfer
and
other
transaction
costs
associated
with
the
issuance
and
redemption
of
Creation
Units,
including
Creation
Units
for
cash.
Additionally,
a
portion
of
the
transaction
fee
is
used
to
offset
transactional
costs
typically
accrued
in
the
Fund's
cus-
tody
expenses
directly
related
to
the
issuance
and
redemption
of
Creation
Units.
An
additional
variable
fee
may
be
charged
for
certain
transactions.
Such
fees
would
be
included
in
the
re-
ceivable
for
capital
shares
issued
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities
if
they
are
outstanding
as
of
year-
end. Transaction
fees
assessed
during
the
period
are
included
in
the
proceeds
from
shares
issued
on
the
Statements
of
Changes
in
Net
Assets.
G.
Security
Transactions
and
Transactions
with
Af-
filiates:
For
the
year ended
September
30,
2023 purchases
and
sales
of
investment
securities
for
the
Fund,
other
than
long-term
U.S.
Government
securities,
short-term
investments
and
In-Kind transactions were $24,113,144
and
$4,069,723,
respectively.
There
were
no
purchases
and
sales
of
long-term
U.S.
Government
securities
for
the
year
ended
September
30,
2023. Purchase
and
Sales
related
to
In-Kind
transactions
were
$2,994,812 and
$1,557,371 for
year end.
The
Fund
invests
in
the
Institutional
Class
of
the
Morgan
Stanley
Institutional
Liquidity
Funds
Government
Portfolio
(the
“Liquidity
Fund”),
an
open-end
management
investment
company
managed
by
the
Adviser. Management fees
paid
by
the
Fund
are
reduced
by
an
amount
equal
to
its
pro-rata
share
of
the management
fees
paid
by
the
Fund
due
to
its
invest-
ment
in
the
Liquidity
Fund.
For
the

H.
Federal
Income
Taxes:
It
is
the
Fund’s
intention
to
continue
to
qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company
and
distribute
all
of
its
taxable
and
tax
exempt income.
Accordingly,
no
provision
for
federal
income
taxes
is
required
in
the
finan-
cial
statements. 
The
Fund
may
be
subject
to
taxes
imposed
by
countries
in
which
it
invests.
Such
taxes
are
generally
based
on
income
and/
or
capital
gains
earned
or
repatriated.
Taxes
are
accrued
based
on
net
investment
income,
net
realized
gains
and
net
unreal-
ized
appreciation
as
such
income
and/or
gains
are
earned.
Taxes
may
also
be
based
on
transactions
in
foreign
currency
and
are
accrued
based
on
the
value
of
investments
denominated
in
such
currency.
FASB
ASC
740-10,
“Income
Taxes—Overall”,
sets
forth
a
minimum
threshold
for
financial
statement
recognition
of
the
benefit
of
a
tax
position
taken
or
expected
to
be
taken
in
a
tax
return.
Management
has
concluded
there
are
no
significant
uncertain
tax
positions
that
would
require
recognition
in
the
financial
statements.
If
applicable,
the
Fund
recognizes
inter-
est
accrued
related
to
unrecognized
tax
benefits
in
“Interest
Expense”
and
penalties
in
“Other
Expenses”
in
the
Statement
of
Operations.
The
Fund
files
tax
returns
with
the
U.S.
Internal
Revenue
Service,
New
York
and
various
states.
The
tax
year
ended
September
30,
2023 remains
subject
to
examination
by
taxing
authorities.
The
tax
character
of
distributions
paid
may
differ
from
the
character
of
distributions
shown
for
GAAP
purposes
due
to
short-term
capital
gains
being
treated
as
ordinary
income
for
tax
purposes.
The
tax
character
of
distributions
paid
during
fiscal
year 2023
was
as
follows: 
The
amount
and
character
of
income
and
gains
to
be
distrib-
uted
are
determined
in
accordance
with
income
tax
regulations
which
may
differ
from
GAAP.
These
book/tax
differences
are
either
considered
temporary
or
permanent
in
nature. 
Temporary
differences
are
attributable
to
differing
book
and
tax
treatments
for
the
timing
of
the
recognition
of
gains
(loss-
es)
on
certain
investment
transactions
and
the
timing
of
the
deductibility
of
certain
expenses. 
Permanent
differences,
due
to
a
tax
adjustment
related
to
an
in-kind
redemption,
resulted
in
the
following
reclassifications
among
the
components
of
net
assets
at
September
30,
2023:
At
September
30,
2023,
the
components
of
distributable
earn-
ings
for
the
Fund
on
a
tax
basis
were
as
follows: 
At
September
30,
2023,
the
Fund
had
available
for
fed-
eral
income
tax
purposes
unused
short-term
capital
losses
of $297,876 that
do
not
have
an
expiration
date. 
To
the
extent
that
capital
loss
carryforwards
are
used
to
offset
any
future
capital
gains
realized,
no
capital
gains
tax
liability
will
be
incurred
by
the
Fund
for
gains
realized
and
not
distrib-
uted.
To
the
extent
that
capital
gains
are
offset,
such
gains
will
not
be
distributed
to
the
shareholders. 
I.
Principal
Risks:
Market
Risk:
An
investment
in
the
Fund
is
based
on
the
values
of
the
Fund’s
investments,
which
may
change
due
to
economic
and
other
events
that
affect
markets
generally,
as
well
as
those
that
affect
particular
regions,
countries,
industries,
companies
or
governments.
The
risks
associated
with
these
developments
may
be
magnified
if
social,
political,
economic
and
other
conditions
and
events
(such
as
war,
natural
disasters,
health
emergencies
(e.g.,
epidemics
and
pandemics),
terrorism,
conflicts,
social
unrest,
recessions,
inflation,
rapid
interest
rate
changes
and
supply
chain
disruptions)
adversely
interrupt
the
global
economy
and
financial
markets.
It
is
difficult
to
predict
when
events
affecting
the
U.S.
or
global
financial
markets
may
occur,
the
effects
that
such
events
may
have
and
the
duration
of
those
effects
(which
may
last
for
extended
periods).
These
events
may
negatively
impact
broad
segments
of
businesses
and
populations
and
have
a
significant
and
rapid
negative
impact
on
the
performance
of
the

investments,

ly
affect
and

volatility
of

and
exacerbate
pre-existing
risks
to
the
Fund.
The
occurrence,
duration
and
extent
of
these
or
other
types
of
adverse
econom-
ic
and
market
conditions
and
uncertainty
over
the
long
term
cannot
be
reasonably
projected
or
estimated
at
this
time.
The
ultimate
impact
of
public
health
emergencies
or
other
adverse
economic
or
market
developments
and
the
extent
to
which
the
associated
conditions
impact
the
Fund
and
its
investments
will
also
depend
on
other
future
developments,
which
are
highly
uncertain,
difficult
to
accurately
predict
and
subject
to
change
at
any
time.
The
financial
performance
of
the
Fund’s
invest-
ments
(and,
in
turn,
the
Fund’s
investment
results)
as
well
as
their
liquidity
may
be
adversely
affected
because
of
these
and
similar
types
of
factors
and
developments.
Authorized
Participant
Concentration
Risk:
Only
an
authorized
participant
may
engage
in
creation
or
redemption
transactions
directly
with
the
Fund.
The
Fund
has
a
limited
number
of
intermediaries
that
act
as
authorized
participants
and
none
of
these
authorized
participants
is
or
will
be
obligated
to
engage
in
creation
or
redemption
transactions.
To
the
extent
that
these
intermediaries
exit
the
business
or
are
unable
to
or
choose
not
to
proceed
with
creation
and/or
redemption
orders
with
respect
to
the
Fund
and
no
other
authorized
participant
creates
or
redeems,
shares
may
trade
at
a
discount
to NAV
and
possibly
face
trading
halts
and/or
delisting. 
Trading
Risk:
The
market
prices
of
shares
are
expected
to
fluctuate,
in
some
cases
materially,
in
response
to
changes
in
the
Fund’s
NAV,
the
intra-day
value
of
the
Fund’s
holdings,
and
supply
and
demand
for
shares.
The
Adviser
cannot
predict
whether
shares
will
trade
above,
below
or
at
their
NAV.
Disrup-
tions
to
creations
and
redemptions,
the
existence
of
significant
market
volatility
or
potential
lack
of
an
active
trading
market
for
the
shares
(including
through
a
trading
halt),
as
well
as
oth-
er
factors,
may
result
in
the
shares
trading
significantly
above
(at
a
premium)
or
below
(at
a
discount)
to
NAV
or
to
the
intraday
value
of
the
Fund’s
holdings.
Buying
or
selling
shares
in
the
secondary
market
may
require
paying
brokerage
com-
missions
or
other
charges
imposed
by
brokers
as
determined
by
that
broker.
Brokerage
commissions
are
often
a
fixed
amount
and
may
be
a
significant
proportional
cost
when
seeking
to
buy
or
sell
relatively
small
amounts
of
shares.
In
addition,
the
market
price
of
shares,
like
the
price
of
any
exchange-traded
security,
includes
a
“bid-ask
spread”
charged
by
the
market
makers
or
other
participants
that
trade
the
particular
security.
The
spread
of the
Fund’s
shares
varies
over
time
based
on
the
Fund’s
trading
volume
and
market
liquidity
and
may
increase
if
the
Fund’s
trading
volume,
the
spread
of
the
Fund’s
underlying
securities,
or
market
liquidity
decrease. 
Large
Shareholder
Transaction
Risk:
The
Fund
may
experience
adverse
effects
when
certain
shareholders
purchase
or
redeem
large
amounts
of
shares
of the
Fund.
In
addition,
a
third
party
investor,
the
Adviser
or
an
affiliate
of
the
Adviser,
an
authorized
participant,
a
lead
market
maker,
or
another
entity
(i.e.,
a
seed
investor)
may
invest
in
the
Fund
and
hold
its
investment
solely
to
facilitate
commencement
of
the
Fund
or
to
facilitate
the
Fund’s
achieving
a
specified
size
or
scale.
Any
such
investment
may
be
held
for
a
limited
period
of
time.
There
can
be
no
assurance
that
any
large
shareholder
would
not
redeem
its
investment,
that
the
size
of
the
Fund
would
be
maintained
at
such
levels
or
that
the
Fund
would
continue
to
meet
applicable
listing
requirements.
Such
larger
than
normal
redemptions
may
cause
the
Fund
to
sell
portfolio
securities
at
times
when
it
would
not
otherwise
do
so,
which
may
negative-
ly
impact
the
Fund’s
NAV
and
liquidity.
Similarly,
large
Fund
share
purchases
may
adversely
affect the
Fund’s
performance
to
the
extent
that the
Fund
is
delayed
in
investing
new
cash
and
is
required
to
maintain
a
larger
cash
position
than
it
ordinarily
would.
These
transactions
may
also
accelerate
the
realization
of
taxable
income
to
shareholders
if
such
sales
of
investments
resulted
in
gains
and
may
also
increase
transaction
costs.
In
addition,
a
large
redemption
could
result
in the
Fund’s
current
expenses
being
allocated
over
a
smaller
asset
base,
leading
to
an
increase
in the
Fund’s
expense
ratio.
Although
large
shareholder
transactions
may
be
more
frequent
under
certain
circumstanc-
es, the
Fund
is
generally
subject
to
the
risk
that
shareholders
can
purchase
or
redeem
a
significant
percentage
of
Fund
shares
at
any
time.
In
addition,
transactions
by
large
shareholders
may
account
for
a
large
percentage
of
the
trading
volume
on
NYSE
Arca
and
may,
therefore,
have
a
material
upward
or
downward
effect
on
the
market
price
of
the
shares. 
J.
Other:
At
September
30,
2023,
the

had
record
own-
ers
of
10%
or
greater,
which
are
related
parties
of
the
Fund.
In-
vestment
activities
of
these
shareholders
could
have
a
material
impact
on
the
Fund.
The
aggregate
percentage
of

owners
was

Report
of

To
the
Shareholders
and
Board
of
Trustees
of
Morgan

Trust
Calvert
US
Select
Equity
ETF
Opinion
on
the
Financial
Statements
We
have
audited
the
accompanying
statement
of
assets
and
liabilities
of
Calvert
US
Select
Equity
ETF
(the
“Fund”)
(one
of
the
funds
constituting
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust
(the
“Trust”)),
including
the
portfolio
of
investments,
as
of
September
30,
2023,
and
the
related
statements
of
operations
and
changes
in
net
assets
and
the
financial
highlights
for
the
period
from
January
30,
2023
(commencement
of
operations)
through
September
30,
2023,
and
the
related
notes
(collectively
referred
to
as
the
“financial
state-
ments”).
In
our
opinion,
the
financial
statements
present
fairly,
in
all
material
respects,
the
financial
position
of
the
Fund
(one
of
the
funds
constituting
Morgan
Stanley
ETF
Trust)
at
September
30,
2023,
and
the
results
of
its
operations,
the
changes
in
its
net
assets
and
its
financial
highlights
for
the
period
from
January
30,
2023
(commencement
of
operations)
through
September
30,
2023,
in
conformity
with
U.S.
generally
accepted
accounting
principles.
Basis
for
Opinion
These
financial
statements
are
the
responsibility
of
the
Trust’s
management.
Our
responsibility
is
to
express
an
opinion
on
the
Fund’s
financial
statements
based
on
our
audit.
We
are
a
public
accounting
firm
registered
with
the
Public
Company
Accounting
Oversight
Board
(United
States)
(“PCAOB”)
and
are
required
to
be
independent
with
respect
to
the
Trust
in
accordance
with
the
U.S.
federal
securities
laws
and
the
applicable
rules
and
regulations
of
the
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
and
the
PCAOB.
We
conducted
our
audit
in
accordance
with
the
standards
of
the
PCAOB.
Those
standards
require
that
we
plan
and
perform
the
audit
to
obtain
reasonable
assurance
about
whether
the
financial
statements
are
free
of
material
misstatement,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud.
The
Trust
is
not
required
to
have,
nor
were
we
engaged
to
perform,
an
audit
of
the
Trust’s
internal
control
over
financial
reporting.
As
part
of
our
audit,
we
are
required
to
obtain
an
understanding
of
internal
control
over
financial
reporting,
but
not
for
the
purpose
of
expressing
an
opinion
on
the
effectiveness
of
the
Trust’s
internal
control
over
financial
reporting.
Accordingly,
we
express
no
such
opinion.
Our
audit
included
performing
procedures
to
assess
the
risks
of
material
misstatement
of
the
financial
statements,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud,
and
performing
procedures
that
respond
to
those
risks.
Such
procedures
included
examining,
on
a
test
basis,
evidence
regarding
the
amounts
and
disclosures
in
the
financial
statements.
Our
procedures
included
confirmation
of
securities
owned
as
of
September
30,
2023,
by
correspondence
with
the
custodian,
brokers
and
others;
when
replies
were
not
received
from
brokers
and
others,
we
performed
other
auditing
procedures.
Our
audit
also
included
evaluating
the
accounting
principles
used
and
significant
estimates
made
by
management,
as
well
as
evaluating
the
overall
presentation
of
the
financial
statements.
We
believe
that
our
audit
provides
a
reasonable
basis
for
our
opinion.
We
have
served
as
the
auditor
of
one
or
more
Morgan
Stanley
investment
companies
since
2000.

(e)(1) The audit committee’s pre-approval policies and procedures are as follows:
 
AUDIT COMMITTEE
AUDIT AND NON-AUDIT SERVICES
PRE-APPROVAL POLICY AND PROCEDURES
OF THE
MORGAN STANLEY FUNDS
AS ADOPTED AND AMENDED JULY 23, 2004 AND JUNE 12 AND 13, 2019
3
1.         Statement of Principles
 
The Audit Committee of the Board is required to review and, in its sole discretion, pre-approve all Covered Services to be provided by the Independent Auditors to the Fund and Covered Entities in order to assure that services performed by the Independent Auditors do not impair the auditor’s independence from the Fund.
 
The SEC has issued rules specifying the types of services that an independent auditor may not provide to its audit client, as well as the audit committee’s administration of the engagement of the independent auditor.  The SEC’s rules establish two different approaches to pre-approving services, which the SEC considers to be equally valid.  Proposed services either: may be pre-approved without consideration of specific case-by-case services by the Audit Committee (“general pre-approval”); or require the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee or its delegate (“specific pre-approval”).  The Audit Committee believes that the combination of these two approaches in this Policy will result in an effective and efficient procedure to pre-approve services performed by the Independent Auditors.  As set forth in this Policy, unless a type of service has received general pre-approval, it will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee (or by any member of the Audit Committee to which pre-approval authority has been delegated) if it is to be provided by the Independent Auditors.  Any proposed services exceeding pre-approved cost levels or budgeted amounts will also require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee.
 
The appendices to this Policy describe the Audit, Audit-related, Tax and All Other services that have the general pre-approval of the Audit Committee.  The term of any general pre-approval is 12 months from the date of pre-approval, unless the Audit Committee considers and provides a different period and states otherwise.  The Audit Committee will annually review and pre-approve the services that may be provided by the Independent Auditors without obtaining specific pre-approval from the Audit Committee.  The Audit Committee will add to or subtract from the list of general pre-approved services from time to time, based on subsequent determinations.
 
The purpose of this Policy is to set forth the policy and procedures by which the Audit Committee intends to fulfill its responsibilities.  It does not delegate the Audit Committee’s responsibilities to pre-approve services performed by the Independent Auditors to management.
 
The Fund’s Independent Auditors have reviewed this Policy and believes that implementation of the Policy will not adversely affect the Independent Auditors’ independence.
____________________
3
This Audit Committee Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy and Procedures (the “Policy”), adopted as of the date above, supersedes and replaces all prior versions that may have been adopted from time to time.
 
2.         Delegation
 
As provided in the Act and the SEC’s rules, the Audit Committee may delegate either type of pre-approval authority to one or more of its members.  The member to whom such authority is delegated must report, for informational purposes only, any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.
 
3.         Audit Services
 
The annual Audit services engagement terms and fees are subject to the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee.  Audit services include the annual financial statement audit and other procedures required to be performed by the Independent Auditors to be able to form an opinion on the Fund’s financial statements.  These other procedures include information systems and procedural reviews and testing performed in order to understand and place reliance on the systems of internal control, and consultations relating to the audit.  The Audit Committee will approve, if necessary, any changes in terms, conditions and fees resulting from changes in audit scope, Fund structure or other items.
 
In addition to the annual Audit services engagement approved by the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee may grant general pre-approval to other Audit services, which are those services that only the Independent Auditors reasonably can provide.  Other Audit services may include statutory audits and services associated with SEC registration statements (on Forms N-1A, N-2, N-3, N-4, etc.), periodic reports and other documents filed with the SEC or other documents issued in connection with securities offerings.
 
The Audit Committee has pre-approved the Audit services in Appendix A.  All other Audit services not listed in Appendix A must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee (or by any member of the Audit Committee to which pre-approval has been delegated).
 
4.         Audit-related Services
 
Audit-related services are assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the Fund’s financial statements and, to the extent they are Covered Services, the Covered Entities or that are traditionally performed by the Independent Auditors.  Because the Audit Committee believes that the provision of Audit-related services does not impair the independence of the auditor and is consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence, the Audit Committee may grant general pre-approval to Audit-related services.  Audit-related services include, among others, accounting consultations related to accounting, financial reporting or disclosure matters not classified as “Audit services”; assistance with understanding and implementing new accounting and financial reporting guidance from rulemaking authorities; agreed-upon or expanded audit procedures related to accounting and/or billing records required to respond to or comply with financial, accounting or regulatory reporting matters; and assistance with internal control reporting requirements under Forms N-CEN and/or N-CSR.
 
The Audit Committee has pre-approved the Audit-related services in Appendix A.  All other Audit-related services not listed in Appendix A must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee (or by any member of the Audit Committee to which pre-approval has been delegated).
 
 
 
5.         Tax Services
 
The Audit Committee believes that the Independent Auditors can provide Tax services to the Fund and, to the extent they are Covered Services, the Covered Entities, such as tax compliance, tax planning and tax advice without impairing the auditor’s independence, and the SEC has stated that the Independent Auditors may provide such services.
 
Pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the Audit Committee has pre-approved the Tax Services in Appendix A.  All Tax services in Appendix A must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee (or by any member of the Audit Committee to which pre-approval has been delegated).
 
6.         All Other Services
 
The Audit Committee believes, based on the SEC’s rules prohibiting the Independent Auditors from providing specific non-audit services, that other types of non-audit services are permitted.  Accordingly, the Audit Committee believes it may grant general pre-approval to those permissible non-audit services classified as All Other services that it believes are routine and recurring services, would not impair the independence of the auditor and are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence.
 
The Audit Committee has pre-approved the All Other services in Appendix A.  Permissible All Other services not listed in Appendix A must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee (or by any member of the Audit Committee to which pre-approval has been delegated).
 
7.         Pre-Approval Fee Levels or Budgeted Amounts
 
Pre-approval fee levels or budgeted amounts for all services to be provided by the Independent Auditors will be established annually by the Audit Committee.  Any proposed services exceeding these levels or amounts will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee.  The Audit Committee is mindful of the overall relationship of fees for audit and non-audit services in determining whether to pre-approve any such services.
 
8.         Procedures
 
All requests or applications for services to be provided by the Independent Auditors that do not require specific approval by the Audit Committee will be submitted to the Fund’s Principal Financial and Accounting Officer and must include a detailed description of the services to be rendered.  The Fund’s Principal Financial and Accounting Officer will determine whether such services are included within the list of services that have received the general pre-approval of the Audit Committee.  The Audit Committee will be informed on a timely basis of any such services rendered by the Independent Auditors.  Requests or applications to provide services that require specific approval by the Audit Committee or Chairperson of the Audit Committee will be submitted to the Audit Committee by the Fund’s Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, who, after consultation with the Independent Auditors, will discuss whether the request or application is consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence.
 
The Audit Committee has designated the Fund’s Principal Financial and Accounting Officer to monitor the performance of all services provided by the Independent Auditors and to determine whether such services are in compliance with this Policy.  The Fund’s Principal Financial and Accounting Officer will report to the Audit Committee on a periodic basis on the results of its monitoring.  Both the Fund’s Principal Financial and Accounting Officer and management will immediately report to the Chairperson of the Audit Committee any breach of this Policy that comes to the attention of the Fund’s Principal Financial and Accounting Officer or any member of management.
 
9.         Additional Requirements
 
The Audit Committee has determined to take additional measures on an annual basis to meet its responsibility to oversee the work of the Independent Auditors and to assure the auditor’s independence from the Fund, such as reviewing a formal written statement from the Independent Auditors delineating all relationships between the Independent Auditors and the Fund, consistent with the PCAOB’s Ethics and Independence Rule 3526, and discussing with the Independent Auditors its methods and procedures for ensuring independence.
 
10.       Covered Entities
 
Covered Entities include the Fund’s investment adviser(s) and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Fund’s investment adviser(s) that provides ongoing services to the Fund(s).  Beginning with non-audit service contracts entered into on or after May 6, 2003, the Fund’s audit committee must pre-approve non-audit services provided not only to the Fund but also to the Covered Entities if the engagements relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund.  This list of Covered Entities would include:
 
Morgan Stanley Funds
Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC
Morgan Stanley Investment Management Inc.

(f)     Not applicable.
 
(g)    See table above.
 
(h)    The audit committee of the Board of Trustees have considered whether the provision of services other than audit services performed by the auditors to the Registrant and Covered Entities is compatible with maintaining the auditors' independence in performing audit services.
