Agency Web Site: https://www.nysdcp.com/

Mission

The Deferred Compensation Board (DCB) administers the New York State Deferred Compensation State Plan (the State Plan), which serves over 137,000 State employees and 75,000 employees of local participating governments. There are approximately 220 local governments that sponsor and administer their own deferred compensation plans in compliance with the Board's rules (Model Plans).

Organization and Staffing

DCB is headed by an Executive Director, who is appointed by the three members of the NYS Deferred Compensation Board. DCB Staff consists of a Deputy Director, Associate Director and an Office Manager.

Budget Highlights

The FY 2021 Executive Budget recommends $892,000 All Funds ($111,000 General Fund; $781,000 Other Funds) and a workforce of 4 FTEs, unchanged from FY 2020.

Program Highlights

The DCB is the rule making entity, as established under Section 5 of the NYS Finance Law for all Internal Revenue Code 457(b) governmental plans in the State of New York. Rules promulgated under the Section are periodically amended and apply equally to the State and Model Plans.

The DCB Staff administers the State Plan through a number of selected vendors and is responsible for day-to-day activities and coordinating the policy decision-making by the Board. DCB Staff issues requests for proposals (RFPs) for its vendors, according to NYS Procurement Policies, and reviews responses and provides guidance to the Board in making selections. The Board makes policy decisions and vendor selections at quarterly public Board meetings.

The DCB Staff also provides support to Model Plans in areas of compliance with the Board’s Rules; plan documents; and some guidance in plan operations.
