Plan Design and Getting Started

What is the difference between a 401(k) and a 403(b)?

Both are workplace retirement plans that let employees save on a tax-advantaged basis, but 403(b) plans are available only to certain employers, such as public schools, 501(c)(3) nonprofits, and churches. The two follow different rules in areas like nondiscrimination testing, available investment vehicles, and whether the plan is subject to ERISA. The right structure depends on your organization type and goals.
