Exhibit m(1)

DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN
of Fidelity Investment Trust:
Fidelity Global Balanced Fund

 1. This Distribution and Service Plan (the "Plan"), when effective in
accordance with its terms, shall be the written plan contemplated by
Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Act") of
Fidelity Global Balanced Fund (the "Portfolio"), a series of shares of
Fidelity Investment Trust (the "Trust").

 2. The Fund has entered into a General Distribution Agreement with
respect to the Portfolio with Fidelity Distributors Corporation (the
"Distributor"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fidelity Management &
Research Company (the "Adviser"), under which the Distributor uses all
reasonable efforts, consistent with its other business, to secure
purchasers for the Portfolio's shares of beneficial interest
("shares").  Under the agreement, the Distributor pays the expenses of
printing and distributing any prospectuses, reports and other
literature used by the Distributor, advertising, and other promotional
activities in connection with the offering of shares of the Portfolio
for sale to the public.  It is recognized that the Adviser may use its
management fee revenues as well as past profits or its resources from
any other source, to make payment to the Distributor with respect to
any expenses incurred in connection with the distribution of Portfolio
shares, including the activities referred to above.

 3. The Adviser directly, or through the Distributor, may, subject to
the approval of the Trustees, make payments to securities dealers and
other third parties who engage in the sale of shares or who render
shareholder support services, including but not limited to providing
office space, equipment and telephone facilities, answering routine
inquiries regarding the Portfolio, processing shareholder transactions
and providing such other shareholder services as the Fund may
reasonably request.

 4. The Portfolio will not make separate payments as a result of this
Plan to the Adviser, Distributor or any other party, it being
recognized that the Portfolio presently pays, and will continue to
pay, a management fee to the Adviser.  To the extent that any payments
made by the Portfolio to the Adviser, including payment of management
fees, should be deemed to be indirect financing of any activity
primarily intended to result in the sale of shares of the Portfolio
within the context of Rule 12b-1 under the Act, then such payments
shall be deemed to be authorized by this Plan.

 5. This Plan shall become effective upon the first business day of
the month following approval by a vote of at least a "majority of the
outstanding voting securities of the Portfolio" (as defined in the
Act), the plan having been approved by a vote of a majority of the
Trustees of the Fund, including a majority of Trustees who are not
"interested persons" of the Fund (as defined in the Act) and who have
no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of this Plan
or in any agreements related to this Plan (the "Independent
Trustees"), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of
voting on this Plan.

 6. This Plan shall, unless terminated as hereinafter provided, remain
in effect from the date specified above until April 30, 2000 and from
year to year thereafter, provided, however, that such continuance is
subject to approval annually by a vote of a majority of the Trustees
of the Fund, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, cast in
person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on this Plan.
This Plan may be amended at any time by the Board of Trustees,
provided that (a) any amendment to authorize direct payments by the
Portfolio to finance any activity primarily intended to result in the
sale of shares of the Portfolio, or to increase materially the amount
spent by the Portfolio for distribution shall be effective only upon
approval by a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities
of the Portfolio, and (b) any material amendments of this Plan shall
be effective only upon approval in the manner provided in the first
sentence in this paragraph.

 7. This Plan may be terminated at any time, without the payment of
any penalty, by vote of a majority of the Independent Trustees or by a
vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the
Portfolio.

 8. During the existence of this Plan, the Fund shall require the
Adviser and/or Distributor to provide the Fund, for review by the
Fund's Board of Trustees, and the Trustees shall review, at least
quarterly, a written report of the amounts expended in connection with
financing any activity primarily intended to result in the sale of
shares of the Portfolio (making estimates of such costs where
necessary or desirable) and the purposes for which such expenditures
were made.

 9. This Plan does not require the Adviser or Distributor to perform
any specific type or level of distribution activities or to incur any
specific level of expenses for activities primarily intended to result
in the sale of shares of the Portfolio.

 10. Consistent with the limitation of shareholder liability as set
forth in the Fund's Declaration of Trust or other organizational
document, any obligations assumed by the Portfolio pursuant to this
Plan and any agreements related to this Plan shall be limited in all
cases to the Portfolio and its assets, and shall not constitute
obligations of any other series of shares of the Fund.

 11. If any provision of this Plan shall be held or made invalid by a
court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of the Plan
shall not be affected thereby.
