International Longshoremen's Association AFL-CIO Employers Pension Fund is a defined benefit pension plan sponsored by International Longshoremen's Association (Afl-Cio)employers' Pe of Hollywood, Florida. For the plan year ending 30 Sep 2025 it reported 3,554 participants, 2,159 of them active, and net assets of $452M. It is a multiemployer plan, maintained under collective bargaining agreements with more than one employer.
Net assets came to $127,141 per participant, well above the $87,935 median for defined benefit plans with 1,000 to 4,999 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 $19.3M for the year ($8,934 per active participant) and benefits paid were $30.4M. 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 5 service provider organisations paid $5,000 or more, with reported compensation of $473K: $133 per participant, well below the same-size median of $325. Administrative expenses charged to the plan were $2.3M. 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 $181M in 2009 to $452M in 2024 (up 149%), and participants from 2,282 to 3,554 (up 56%).
The independent accountant's opinion on the financial statements was unmodified (unqualified).

Questions and answers
How big is International Longshoremen's Association AFL-CIO Employers Pension Fund?
3,554 participants at the end of the plan year ending 30 Sep 2025, of whom 2,159 were active employees, with net assets of $451,860,271. 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 International Longshoremen's Association (Afl-Cio)employers' Pe contribute per participant?
The filing reports $19,289,066 in employer contributions for the year, which is $8,934 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 $473,435 in compensation to service provider organisations, $133 per participant or 0.10% of net assets. The same-size median among plans reporting any Schedule C compensation was $325 per participant. Administrative expenses on Schedule H were $2,320,513. 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 International Longshoremen's Association (Afl-Cio)employers' Pe. Investment advisory or management: Prudential Insurance Company of Ame. Trustee or custodian: US Bank National Association. The financial statements were audited by Arty Cohn & Feuer LC. 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 Oct 2024 to 30 Sep 2025, received by the Department of Labor on 15 Jul 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.
