Sequoia ETF

After careful deliberation, we are evolving Sequoia Fund Inc., our registered mutual fund, into an active exchange traded fund (“Sequoia ETF”). This new Sequoia ETF has been established to receive the portfolio assets of Sequoia Fund, Inc., our registered mutual fund, pending a successful shareholder vote. Sequoia ETF (NYSE: SEQ) is expected to go live in October 2026.

You can find the official proxy here or a PDF copy in the “Press Releases, Filings, and Announcements” section below. You can cast your vote for the upcoming shareholder vote HERE. Shareholders should reach out to us directly at 212-832-5280 or info@ruanecunniff.com to obtain their Control Number, which is required to vote.

Visit this page for me details on how to vote and how to open a new brokerage account.
