What Are The Kinds Of Pension Plans?

By George Dodson


In the 21st century, a lot of us choose employment in order to meet our basic needs. With years of employment, we become experienced in the job we are doing. As we grow older, it becomes apparent that there will come a time when we will have to retire. To retire, we have to have a scheme that will allow us to live comfortably during this period.

There are many methods of doing this. Preparing for the future by working your entire life is one of them. Others have a plan in place while they are working so that that plan pays them each month that they are in retirement. These are referred to as pension schemes.

Various types of pension plans described

Let us analyze the Designed Benefit Pension Plan. A certain fixed rate is given that is calculated via a method your pension sum is derived at.

The formula used are the flat benefit formula, the best earning average and the career average earning formula.

Another pension scheme type is the Defined contribution pension plan that pays a standard amount from the persons salary into an investment account periodically. The sum of the amount in the account differs according to third party sources that add to it and the interest you receive on that amount.

The two schemes described above are the only 2 that are registered. Other pension schemes, for example deferred profit sharing and individual pension plans exist but the amount earned will vary with how well your company is doing.
