Teamsters Joint Council No. 83 of Virginia Pension Fund of Richmond, Virginia sponsors Teamsters Joint Council No. 83 of Virginia Pension Fund, a defined benefit pension plan. Its Form 5500 for the plan year ending 31 Dec 2024 shows 7,759 participants (2,815 active) and $1.47B in net assets. It is a multiemployer plan, maintained under collective bargaining agreements with more than one employer.
Net assets came to $189,788 per participant, well above the $87,623 median for defined benefit plans with 5,000 to 24,999 participants and well above the $94,853 median for defined benefit plans in transportation and warehousing. 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 $97.6M for the year ($34,678 per active participant) and benefits paid were $76.4M. 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 15 service provider organisations paid $5,000 or more, with reported compensation of $5.7M: $736 per participant, well above the same-size median of $232. Administrative expenses charged to the plan were $7.9M. 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 $424M in 2009 to $1.47B in 2024 (up 248%), and participants from 7,276 to 7,759 (up 7%).
The independent accountant's opinion on the financial statements was unmodified (unqualified).

Questions and answers
How big is Teamsters Joint Council No. 83 of Virginia Pension Fund?
7,759 participants at the end of the plan year ending 31 Dec 2024, of whom 2,815 were active employees, with net assets of $1,472,565,831. Among defined benefit plans that places it in the 5,000 to 24,999 participants band, which held 651 plans in plan year 2024.
What does Teamsters Joint Council No. 83 of Virginia Pension Fund contribute per participant?
The filing reports $97,617,616 in employer contributions for the year, which is $34,678 per active participant; the median for plans of the same type and size was $9,468 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 $5,710,093 in compensation to service provider organisations, $736 per participant or 0.39% of net assets. The same-size median among plans reporting any Schedule C compensation was $232 per participant. Administrative expenses on Schedule H were $7,931,749. 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 Teamsters Joint Council No. 83 of Virginia Pension Fund. Investment advisory or management: Invesco International, Frontier Capital Management Company and LSV Asset Management. The financial statements were audited by Calibre CPA Group PLLC. 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 2024 to 31 Dec 2024, received by the Department of Labor on 9 Oct 2025. 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.
