STOCK WATCH

KEYWORDS Studios, a company which allows video game creators to outsource jobs, rose 4.9pc yesterday after it brought in an advisory firm to help it oversee its business.

Investors seemed to take the appointment of One Advisory Group as company secretary as a sign that the business was in good health, and that it would be responsibly run.

Earlier this month, broker Peel Hunt said that Keywords was ‘leading the pack’ in its sector. Its shares rose 4.9pc, or 84p, to 1784p.
