Defined Contribution Plan

A defined contribution plan is a retirement plan where the employee and the employer set aside funds into a retirement investment account trust. Over time, the account is expected to grow from the investment returns and contributions. At retirement or at the end of employment, the vested value is available to be paid to the participant. There is no guaranteed amount. Examples of defined contribution plans include 401(k) plans and profit sharing plans.
