403(b)

Definition:

An alternative retirement plan to a 401(k) plan offered by non-profit organizations such as universities and charitable organizations, rather than corporations. There are advantages to 403(b) plans: contributions lower taxable income, larger contributions can be made to the account, earnings can grow tax-deferred, and some plans allow loans. Contributions grow tax-deferred until withdrawal. Withdrawals are taxed as ordinary income (which is sometimes a disadvantage).
