NonQualified Benefit Plan Examples
Salary Continuation Plans
The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993
severely limited the extent to which benefits could be paid to highly
compensated employees from qualified benefit plans. For example,
your financial institution may have a defined benefit retirement
(pension) plan that covers all employees who meet certain qualification
requirements, such as age and length of service. If your plan's
benefit payments are determined by a percentage of final or average
compensation, under current rules, that figure is limited for highly
compensated employees. Because of this limitation, your key executives
and highly compensated employees are likely to retire with benefits
that reflect a considerably lower percentage of final pay than the
percentage received by the remainder of your workforce.
A custom designed Salary Continuation Plan is
one of the most effective benefit plans in rewarding executives
and key employees with specified retirement benefits. A Salary Continuation
Plan eases key employees' burden of searching for post-retirement
replacement income, allowing them to focus on making your financial
institution successful. We will work with you to custom design a
Salary Continuation Plan that will serve to recruit, retain, and
reward your most highly valued, talented employees. Contact
