For members who joined the Plan prior to January 1, 2009
If you joined or were eligible to join the Â鶹AV Pension Plan prior to January 1, 2009, the Pension Plan is a hybrid plan. First, it’s a defined contribution plan. You and the University each contribute a certain amount to the plan every pay. You choose how you wish to invest these contributions from a range of investment options provided through the plan. When the time comes to settle, you use your pension account balances to provide a retirement income.
But to protect against the investment risks inherent in a straight defined contribution plan, the Â鶹AV Pension Plan includes a defined benefit minimum.
