Form 5500 information is as filed by the plan administrator with the Department of Labor and may be amended. Figures reflect the plan year shown, not current balances. Form 5500 contains no individual account balances. Look up the original filing at EFAST2.
Board of Trustees of the 32BJ/BROADWAY League Pension Fund of New York, New York sponsors 32BJ/BROADWAY League Pension Fund, a defined benefit pension plan. Its Form 5500 for the plan year ending 31 Dec 2025 shows 2,539 participants (1,142 active) and $76.2M in net assets. It is a multiemployer plan, maintained under collective bargaining agreements with more than one employer.
Net assets came to $28,265 per participant in plan year 2024, well below the $87,935 median for defined benefit plans with 1,000 to 4,999 participants and well below the $84,727 median for defined benefit plans in administrative and support and waste management services. The figure is an average across everyone in the plan, including former employees with small balances; Form 5500 holds no individual account data.
Employer contributions were $2.3M for the year ($2,003 per active participant) and benefits paid were $4.6M. In a defined benefit plan the employer's contribution follows funding rules rather than a match formula, so it can swing widely from year to year.
Schedule C lists 13 service provider organisations paid $5,000 or more, with reported compensation of $984K: $388 per participant, above the same-size median of $325. Administrative expenses charged to the plan were $1.1M. Schedule C does not capture every cost: fees netted from fund returns and fees the employer pays directly are outside it.
Across the filings on record, net assets went from $37.5M in 2009 to $76.2M in 2025 (up 103%), and participants from 1,835 to 2,539 (up 38%).
The independent accountant's opinion on the financial statements was unmodified (unqualified).

Questions and answers
How big is 32BJ/BROADWAY League Pension Fund?
2,539 participants at the end of the plan year ending 31 Dec 2025, of whom 1,142 were active employees, with net assets of $76,189,829. Among defined benefit plans that places it in the 1,000 to 4,999 participants band, which held 1,540 plans in plan year 2024.
What does Board of Trustees of the 32BJ/BROADWAY League Pension Fund contribute per participant?
The filing reports $2,287,389 in employer contributions for the year, which is $2,003 per active participant; the median for plans of the same type and size was $10,593 in plan year 2024. Form 5500 reports the total only. It does not state the match formula, and the per-participant figure is an average, not any one person's contribution.
What fees does the plan pay and how do they compare?
Schedule C reports $983,898 in compensation to service provider organisations, $388 per participant or 1.3% of net assets. The same-size median among plans reporting any Schedule C compensation was $325 per participant. Administrative expenses on Schedule H were $1,085,356. Investment costs deducted inside mutual funds and other pooled vehicles are not itemised on Form 5500, so these figures are a floor rather than a full cost.
Who runs the plan?
The sponsor is Board of Trustees of the 32BJ/BROADWAY League Pension Fund. Recordkeeping or administration: Building Service 32BJ Health Fund. Investment advisory or management: J.P Morgan Investment MGMT Inc. and Gallagher Fiduciary Advisors LLC. Trustee or custodian: BNY Mellon. The financial statements were audited by Withumsmith+brown, P.C.. Form 5500 also names the plan administrator's signer and other individuals; this site publishes organisations only.
Was the audit opinion unqualified?
The filing reports an unmodified (unqualified) opinion. Unmodified (formerly "unqualified") is the standard clean opinion.
How current is this, and does it show my balance?
This is the Form 5500 for the plan year 1 Jan 2025 to 31 Dec 2025, received by the Department of Labor on 2 Aug 2026. Filings are due seven months after the plan year ends, or nine and a half with an extension, so the public record always runs a year or more behind. It contains plan-level totals only: no individual balances, contributions or names of participants exist in the data.
