Keystone Global Opportunities Fund
200 Berkeley Street
Boston, Massachusetts  02116-5034

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         I am a  Senior  Vice  President  of and  General  Counsel  to  Keystone
Investment   Management   Company,   investment   adviser  to  Keystone   Global
Opportunities  Fund (the "Fund").  You have asked for my opinion with respect to
the  issuance  of  22,123,662  additional  shares of the Fund  under the  Fund's
Declaration of Trust, as amended (the  "Declaration of Trust"),  and pursuant to
the Fund's  indefinite  registration  of such shares  under Rule 24f-2 under the
1940 Act. The Fund is filing its Form 24f-2 to which this opinion is appended to
make the  issuance of such  shares  definite in number for its fiscal year ended
September 30, 1996.

         To my  knowledge,  a  Prospectus  is on file  with the  Securities  and
Exchange  Commission  as part of  Post-Effective  Amendment No. 13 to the Fund's
Registration  Statement  under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,  covering
the public  offering and sale of the Fund's  shares for the period  during which
such shares were issued.

         In my opinion,  such shares,  if issued and sold in accordance with the
Fund's Declaration of Trust,  By-Laws,  as amended (the "Bylaws"),  and offering
Prospectus,  were legally  issued,  fully paid, and  nonassessable  by the Fund,
entitling the holders thereof to the rights set forth in the  Declaration  Trust
and By-Laws and subject to the limitations stated therein.

         My opinion is based upon my examination of the  Declaration of Trust; a
review of the minutes of the Fund's Board of Trustees,  signed by the  Secretary
of the Fund, authorizing the registration of shares pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under
the  1940  Act and  the  issuance  of such  additional  shares;  and the  Fund's
Prospectus.  In my examination of such documents, I have assumed the genuineness
of all signatures and the conformity of copies to originals.

         I hereby  consent to the use of this opinion in connect with the Fund's
Form 24f-2 making definite the number of such additional shares issued.


                                            Sincerely yours,

                                            /s/ Rosemary D. Van Antwerp

                                            Rosemary D. Van Antwerp
                                            Senior Vice President
                                            and General Counsel
