Defined Contribution Plan Definition

A defined contribution plan is a form of retirement savings that offers a tax-advantaged account for employees to contribute to. This can be done individually or with the help of their employer. Contributions and growth within the account are typically tax-free until withdrawal, with the exception of Roth options.
