Collin County Retirement Plan Briefing September 7, 2010
A percentage of your employee’s paycheck is deposited into his or her TCDRS account. Your employee’s savings grow at an annual, compounded rate of 7% regardless of market ups or downs. You are also saving for your employee’s retirement. Your employer contributions become matching dollars for employees that retire. Your rate is determined annually based on your projected assets and estimated benefits promised. At retirement, you match the employee’s final account balance, including interest, $2.50 for every dollar saved. We calculate a monthly retirement payment based on that account balance and matching. Your retiring employee receives a monthly benefit payment for life. Five Simple Steps

TCDRS Plan Design We have a unique structure that combines the best features of defined benefit plans and defined contribution plans. • Defined Benefit Plans • Example: traditional pension plan • Benefit based on employee’s final salary and length of career • Monthly benefit lasts for lifetime • Employer assumes investment risk • TCDRS • An employee-savings based plan • Benefit is based on employee’s final account balance, plus employer matching • Employee must retire to earn employer matching • Interest rate fixed at 7% • Monthly benefit lasts for lifetime • Employer assumes investment risk • Defined ContributionPlans • Example: 401(k) • Benefit based on employee’s savings and employer matching, if provided • Benefit varies according to market performance • Benefit may not last a lifetime • Employee assumes investment risk 13 13
