BSW + Sequoia: One Firm. Stronger Together.

September 1, 2026

 

Trusted Colleagues & Professional Partners:

BSW is thrilled to announce that we are joining Sequoia Financial Group effective August 31, 2026!  BSW clients were privately informed in mid-July, and we’ve been eager to share this news with you — our colleagues, friends, and professional partners. Public announcements of the merger went live today! Additional details and FAQs are available at: https://bsw.com/bsw-sequoia/

Since our founding in 1992, BSW has pursued a singular vision: to Make Life Better – for our clients, our team, and our communities. This thirty-four-year journey together has been guided by our core beliefs that:

  • Life is more about how you live than what you have;
  • There is a difference between having wealth and living a rich life; and,
  • Great lives require disciplined thought and bold action.

Driven by our vision and these core beliefs, BSW’s merger with Sequoia marks an important milestone in our evolution. Headquartered in Akron, Ohio, Sequoia’s vision of Enriching Lives, client-centric approach, investment philosophy, and values-led culture of teamwork, integrity, and passion is uniquely synonymous and perfectly aligned with BSW.

When we first met Sequoia and its leadership team, it was like meeting additional BSW family. Fellow investment professionals with a deep desire to serve others and whose independent, majority-employee-owned firm is an expression of that ethos. Although Seqouia and BSW may be of different sizes, we make one another better – the whole truly becoming greater than the sum of its parts. Importantly, BSW will become Sequoia’s flagship office for Colorado and the Mountain West, bringing further career growth and ownership opportunities for our team, as we build our regional presence together.

We also look forward to deepening our relationships with you — our colleagues and professional partners, introducing our Sequoia teammates, and working together in service to our mutual clients, organizations, and communities in the years and decades ahead! Onward!
