As a seasoned industry veteran continues in a successful career, they may begin wondering about different alternatives for building a bigger nest egg. Over time, they may have accumulated a sizeable amount of money through a company-sponsored 401(k) plan, but at their current income, there might be another employer sponsored savings vehicle called a nonqualified deferred compensation (NQDC) plan.

NQDC plans, unlike traditional 401(k) plans, are not capped by the IRS annual contribution limits of $18,000 for 2015 for those younger than age 50. There are also no mandatory minimum withdrawal requirements at the age of 70 ½ and no penalties for distributions taken prior to age 59 ½ in an NQDC plan. However, the distributions will be subject to ordinary income taxes when the distribution is taken from the plan.
