JERSEY CITY, New Jersey and LONDON, February 10 - Knight Capital Europe Ltd., a subsidiary of Knight Capital Group, Inc.
(Nasdaq: NITE), today announced that Knight Link in Europe will begin trading
Nordic large-cap securities listed on the NASDAQ OMX Nordic. Knight Link, an
innovative trading model for European equities, will initiate coverage of 75
stocks in Finland, Denmark and Sweden.

"We are very excited to expand Knight Link into the Nordic markets," said
Kee-Meng Tan, Managing Director, Head of the Electronic Trading Group in
Europe. "Our unique model of providing liquidity to both retail and
institutional broker-dealer clients on a single platform has been well
received in the UK. We saw over US$4 billion executed through Knight Link in
January and hope that the expansion will facilitate further growth."

Officially launched in Europe in November 2009, Knight Link offers rapid
order execution in a broad and growing range of pan-European large- and
mid-cap equities. Knight Link provides institutional and retail
broker-dealers access to Knight's unique liquidity. It is designed to bring
European clients quality executions with high fulfilment rates and low cost
on a low-latency platform. With the addition of the Nordic stocks, Knight
Link will make markets in more than 600 European-listed stocks including
those in the UK, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, Italy and
Switzerland.

"We understand that each market is different," Mr. Tan added. "Knight
Link is customisable to each client's needs and preferences. We accommodate a
wide range of trading architectures and capacity requirements through our
market-leading technology, extensive market-making operation, and
connectivity to the full range of trading venues in Europe."

Knight Link in Europe is based on the highly successful model Knight
developed for trading in the U.S. equity markets. In the U.S., Knight Link
provides access to one of the largest sources of off-exchange liquidity in
the marketplace with an average of 125 million U.S. equity shares traded
daily in January 2010.

Knight provides clients with market access and trade execution services
in Europe through our London-based trading operations. Knight is a direct
member of more than 20 European exchanges and multilateral trading facilities
(MTFs). Knight is also a Retail Service Provider (RSP) in the UK and a retail
