Description

Deferred compensation is an arrangement in which a portion of an employee's income is paid out at a date after which the income is actually earned. A Deferred Compensation Agreement is a contractual agreement in which an employee (or independent contractor) agrees to be paid in a future year for services rendered. Deferred compensation payments generally commence upon termination of employment (e.g., retirement) or death or disability before retirement. These agreements are often geared toward anticipated retirement in order to provide cash payments to the retiree and to defer taxation to a year when the recipient is in a lower bracket. Although the employer's contractual obligation to pay the deferred compensation is typically unsecured, the obligation still constitutes a contractual promise.

FAQ

Risk of Forfeiture The possibility of forfeiture is one of the main risks of a deferred compensation plan, making it significantly less secure than a 401(k) plan.

Traditional individual retirement accounts (IRAs) and 401(k)s are examples of qualified deferred compensation. With these plans, employees contribute pretax dollars via payroll deductions to their retirement savings account. The total contributions cannot exceed the prescribed IRS annual limit.

If you take your deferred compensation payments over a period of 10 years or more, those payments will be taxed in the state where you reside, rather than in the state in which you earned the compensation, possibly reducing your state income taxes.

Deferred annuities provide a lump sum or income stream at retirement or a specified time. They have an accumulation phase for growth and a payout phase for withdrawals or annuitization. Types include fixed, variable, and fixed indexed annuities, each with varying levels of risk and guarantees.

The deferment period in life insurance is a gap period or waiting period between the last date of premium payment and the actual benefits being received. This period is valid for some life insurance policies such as savings plans, retirement plans, child plans, ULIP plans, etc.

A deferment period, in the context of insurance, refers to a specific duration during which the insured individual, referred to as the life assured, has become unable to work until they start receiving benefits from their insurance policy1.
