This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D relates to the Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), of Knight Capital Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), and further amends the statement on Schedule 13D filed on August 16, 2012, as amended by Amendment No.1 thereto (the “Amended Schedule 13D,” and, together with this Amendment No. 2, the “Schedule 13D”). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 2 shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Amended Schedule 13D.

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

The first paragraph of Item 5(a) – (b) of the Schedule 13D is hereby deleted and the following substituted in lieu thereof:

As reported in the Issuer’s Form 8-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 28, 2013, all outstanding shares of the Issuer’s Series A-1 Preferred Stock mandatorily converted to Class A Common Stock pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designations. As a result, as of the date hereof, the Blackstone Funds beneficially own, in the aggregate, 56,875,360 shares of Class A Common Stock.

The penultimate paragraph of Item 5(a) – (b) of the Schedule 13D is hereby deleted and the following substituted in lieu thereof:

The calculation of the percentage of shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by each Reporting Person is based on 374,779,671 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as reported in the Amendment No.1 to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2013 of Knight Capital Group, Inc. as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 10, 2013.

The response to Item 5(c) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and the following substituted in lieu thereby.
