"We have long admired the stellar work Kevin and the NCA team have done on behalf of their clients," said Thomas Haught, Sequoia's president and CEO.

Additionally, when we join forces, we will continue to reinvest in our specialists to stay on the forefront of technology, asset management, and wealth planning."

"As part of our strategic, long-term succession plan, NCA carefully outlined the type of firm we want to join, and we enthusiastically chose Sequoia," said Myeroff.
