Abstract/Citation: |
Permits certain defined contribution retirement plans to demonstrate compliance with non-discrimination requirements based on plan benefits rather than contributions. Defined contribution plan can test on a benefit basis if it provides broadly available allocation rates, age-based allocations, or passes a gateway requiring allocation rates for non-highly compensated employees to be at least 5 per cent of pay or at least one-third of the highest allocation rate for highly compensated employees. |
