Defined Benefit Pension Plan

What kind of owners benefit:


Older highly compensated owners, especially those with younger lower compensated employees.

Also owners who have already accrued a large benefit in a defined contribution plan.
   
The employer who finds this plan attractive is one who:
Desires to maximize the amount of funds that can be set aside for retirement (and deducted for income tax purposes), even in excess of the $30,000 annual limitation of defined contribution plans.
Desires to design the plan to maximize the benefit to the highly compensated older owner.
Can accept higher administrative costs, including fees to PBGC. (PBGC is the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation that guarantees benefits similar to the FDIC insuring bank accounts).
