Traditional pensions are commonly referred to as Qualified Plans, and there are two types: Defined-Benefit and Defined-Contribution. Defined-Benefit Plans are funded by employer contributions and are guaranteed by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC). Employee-sponsored retirement plans such as 401(k), 403(h) and 457 plans are called Defined-Contribution plans. Defined-Contribution plans are funded in large part by employee contributions and are not guaranteed by the PBGC.
