Pros and cons of a 403(b) ProsCons Tax advantages Few investment choices High contribution limits High fees Employer matching Penalties on early withdrawals Shorter vesting schedules Not always subject to ERISA1 more row •
401(k) plans and 403(b) plans offer very similar benefits. As such, one isn't really better than the other. The main difference is that each plan is offered to employees of different types of companies. Another key difference between the plans is that 403(b) plans also offer a $15,000 catch-up.
Nonprofit organizations typically use 403(b) plans, 401(k) plans, SIMPLE IRA plans, and other retirement plans for employees.
403(b)'s, also known as Tax-Sheltered Annuity (TSA) plans, are exclusively available to certain tax-exempt organizations (e.g., 501(c)(3)'s, schools, etc.) while 401(k)s can be used by any employer (private companies or nonprofits).
A 403(b) plan is available to non-governmental non-profit entities. This plan type is exempt from certain compliance testing and has fewer investment options than a 401(k).
Nonprofits have a wide array of retirement plan options to support their employees' financial futures, from 403(b) and 457(b) plans to SEP IRAs and SIMPLE IRAs. These plans offer various benefits, from pre-tax savings and employer contributions to simplified administration tailored for smaller organizations.
Though 401(k)s are primarily offered by larger for-profit companies, many nonprofit entities also offer 401(k) plans to their employees. In fact, many nonprofit organizations may choose to offer both a 401(k) and a 403(b).
In order for a non-profit company to use a SIMPLE IRA, it must have less than 100 employees. The IRS does not categorize SIMPLE IRA plans as qualified plans. Since it was designed for start-ups and small organizations, a non-profit would not have to worry about: Non-discrimination testing.
