According to this form, Morgan Stanley charges 25M to arrange a sale of 50M. Is there something behind this, or is this normal? http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edg

  There are a few other sales where there are 0 fees. So likely they "don't charge" for those and put all of the fees in a single filing.

    Unbelievable that this can be legal.

      Could you explain to me why it's a problem or should be illegal? I don't know enough about the topic to understand your surprise that it's legal.
