RETIREMENT SOLUTIONS

401(a) Retirement Plans

Retirement savings for public and non-profit employees.

401(a) plans, like 403(b) plans, are found in the public and non-profit sector, helping employees save for retirement and take advantage of tax savings. Public and non-profit sector employers may offer or sponsor both types of plans.

Compared to 403(b) plans, 401(a) plans:

  • Provide more control over who is eligible to contribute and how much they should be contributing.
  • Generally make it mandatory for eligible employees to enroll in the 401(a) plan.
  • Have stricter models for the plan sponsor to contribute — employer contributions are mandatory
  • Don’t allow for catch-up contributions for older or long-tenured employees
  • Traditionally offer safer, less comprehensive investment options
