Retirement and Pension Plan for Officers & Employees of the Nycdcc and Related Organizations is a defined benefit pension plan sponsored by BD Trustees Ret and Pension Plan for Officers and of New York, New York. For the plan year ending 30 Jun 2025 it reported 656 participants, 41 of them active, and net assets of $105M. It is a multiemployer plan, maintained under collective bargaining agreements with more than one employer.
Net assets came to $160,048 per participant, well above the $86,583 median for defined benefit plans with 500 to 999 participants and well above the $110,377 median for defined benefit plans in other 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 $4.2M for the year ($103,181 per active participant) and benefits paid were $11.0M. 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 $655K: $998 per participant, well above the same-size median of $377. Administrative expenses charged to the plan were $700K. 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 $88.1M in 2009 to $105M in 2024 (up 19%), and participants from 807 to 656 (down 19%).
The independent accountant's opinion on the financial statements was unmodified (unqualified).
