RBA Financial Group is the NBP Defined Contribution Pension Plans’ sponsor, a defined contribution pension plan. The Plan is made available to First Nations employers who wish to offer an advantageous savings pension plan to their employees. It is a multi-employer plan, meaning multiple employers contribute to the same plan.
An advantageous
savings pension plan
The NBP defined contribution pension plan is exclusively offered to First Nation employers, in which more than 80 different employers contribute, mainly private enterprises, Aboriginal organizations and band councils. The Plan has a strong growth year after year, thanks to the Plans’ simplicity, flexibility, and its features adapted to the realities of Aboriginal peoples.
It is a capital accumulation pension plan that provides a retirement income to its participants. At retirement, each participant has an accumulated amount from the employer’s and their own contributions, as well as investment returns accumulated whilst the account was active. Based on personal circumstances and tax and legal rules, participants will decide how to use the accumulated amount for their retirement income.
This type of plan reduces financial risks linked to pension plans for employers while also significantly contributing to the financial security of their employees. Moreover, the introduction of a multi-employer plan such as the NBP defined contribution plan allows for a pooling of premiums, reducing the management fees on the assets owned by employees and allows for investment vehicles otherwise inaccessible for individuals.
