401K Employer Sponsored Plan
A 401(k) plan is a tax-advantaged defined-contribution retirement account offered by many employers to their employees. It is named after a section of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. Employees can make contributions to their 401(k) accounts through automatic payroll withholding, and their employers can match some or all of those contributions. The investment earnings in a traditional 401(k) plan are not taxed until the employee withdraws that money, typically after retirement.
