Final Dividend

Keystone Investment Trust plc                         

Headline: Final Dividend

The Board has declared a final dividend of 28p per share (2009: 28p), giving a
total dividend for the year of 45.5p per share, the same as last year.

Based on the share price at the year-end, this total dividend represents a
dividend yield of 3.89%. While the primary objective of the Company is
long-term growth of capital, the Board will continue to pay attention to the
importance of dividend to some of the Company's shareholders. This emphasis is
in tune with the Manager's focus on investing in companies which can maintain
and increase dividends.

The dividend will be paid on 17 December 2010 to shareholders on the register
on 19 November 2010.
