money-purchase
A money-purchase occupational pension scheme is where contributions are based on fixed cash amounts or salary percentages. These sums plus investment income and capital gains together provide retirement benefits based on the performance of the fund. A final salary scheme is based on the performance of the fund. A final salary scheme is based on actuarial considerations, which (hopefully) allow the employer to assess contributions and define the benefits in advance.
