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, Nalc Annuity Trust Fund of Ashburn, Virginia sponsors Nalc Annuity Trust Fund, a defined benefit pension plan. Its Form 5500 for the plan year ending 30 Jun 2025 shows 1,677 participants (555 active) and $382M in net assets. It is a multiemployer plan, maintained under collective bargaining agreements with more than one employer.
Net assets came to $227,583 per participant, well above the $87,935 median for defined benefit plans with 1,000 to 4,999 participants and well above the $119,983 median for defined benefit plans in finance and insurance. 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 $11.7M for the year ($21,097 per active participant) and benefits paid were $25.6M. 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.
The filing reports no service provider compensation on Schedule C. That is common where fees are paid by the employer or taken from investment returns, neither of which appears there. Administrative expenses charged to the plan were $0.
Across the filings on record, net assets went from $192M in 2009 to $382M in 2024 (up 98%), and participants from 1,411 to 1,677 (up 19%).
The independent accountant's opinion on the financial statements was unmodified (unqualified).

Questions and answers
How big is Nalc Annuity Trust Fund?
1,677 participants at the end of the plan year ending 30 Jun 2025, of whom 555 were active employees, with net assets of $381,656,903. 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, Nalc Annuity Trust Fund contribute per participant?
The filing reports $11,708,668 in employer contributions for the year, which is $21,097 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 no provider compensation for the year. Administrative expenses on Schedule H were $0. 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, Nalc Annuity Trust Fund. The financial statements were audited by Withumsmith & Brown, PC. 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 8 Apr 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.
