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.
In the plan year ending 30 Jun 2025, New York District Council of Carpenters Annuity FD covered 38,355 participants and held $3.69B in net assets. The plan is a 401(k) plan sponsored by Board of Trustees of the Nydcc Annuity FD of New York, New York. It is a multiemployer plan, maintained under collective bargaining agreements with more than one employer.
Net assets came to $96,222 per participant, well above the $62,774 median for defined contribution plans with 25,000 or more participants and well above the $54,962 median for defined contribution plans in construction. The figure is an average across everyone in the plan, including former employees with small balances; Form 5500 holds no individual account data.
The employer contributed $167M during the year, or $10,714 per active participant against a same-size median of $2,417; participants contributed $598K and $1.9M arrived as rollovers and other contributions. Benefits paid out totalled $251M.
Schedule C lists 4 service provider organisations paid $5,000 or more, with reported compensation of $201K: $5.25 per participant, well below the same-size median of $36.41. Administrative expenses charged to the plan were $3.8M. 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 $1.36B in 2009 to $3.69B in 2024 (up 172%), and participants from 36,474 to 38,355 (up 5%).
The independent accountant's opinion on the financial statements was unmodified (unqualified).

Questions and answers
How big is New York District Council of Carpenters Annuity FD?
38,355 participants at the end of the plan year ending 30 Jun 2025, of whom 15,553 were active employees, with net assets of $3,690,606,984. Among defined contribution plans that places it in the 25,000 or more participants band, which held 608 plans in plan year 2024.
What does Board of Trustees of the Nydcc Annuity FD contribute per participant?
The filing reports $166,629,283 in employer contributions for the year, which is $10,714 per active participant; the median for plans of the same type and size was $2,417 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 $201,322 in compensation to service provider organisations, $5.25 per participant or 0.01% of net assets. The same-size median among plans reporting any Schedule C compensation was $36.41 per participant. Administrative expenses on Schedule H were $3,760,138. 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 Nydcc Annuity FD. Investment advisory or management: Gallagher Fiduciary Advisors LLC. The financial statements were audited by Schultheis & Panettieri, LLP. 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 Jul 2024 to 30 Jun 2025, received by the Department of Labor on 25 Mar 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.
