The 403(b) is an additional retirement plan that you can voluntarily sign up for through our Third Party Administrators, National Benefit Services.

The 403(b) Retirement Plan acts very similar to a 401(k) Plan and provides several benefits, including:

Contributions to the plan are held in a governmental retirement account with tax benefits.
Money may be accessed for various reasons. See the attached notice for distribution reasons.
Contribution limits are much higher than the limits in IRAs.

More information on 403(b) Plans, including a list of Approved Vendors can be found here: http://www.nbsbenefits.com/non-erisa-403b-forms/ .

Once you have established an account with a Vendor, please complete the “Salary Reduction Agreement” form indicating how much you would like to contribute. After that, please return it to the address or fax # provided on the bottom of the form and they will take care of the rest. You may also contact Julie Herring, Payroll Department for more information.

PEBA Retirement

RETIREMENT BENEFITS

PEBA sponsors and manages the retirement plans for South Carolina's public workforce. In partnership with the state's public employers, we help ensure that public employers can offer their employees a comprehensive retirement plan that is responsive to their employees' needs and is equitable to all stakeholders. Information about the retirement plans we administer is located here.

PEBA’s Board of Directors and agency staff take the fiscal stewardship of the funds with which we have been entrusted very seriously, and we are committed to excellence, efficiency and transparency. While we administer the retirement plans, taking in contributions and making disbursements, PEBA does not manage the money in the public pension trust funds.

The public pension trust funds are managed and invested by another state agency, the South Carolina Retirement System Investment Commission. PEBA’s executive director serves on the Commission.
