The IBEW plan is a qualified 401(k) plan, not an IRA, that was established by the IBEW Trustees in 1975 as a bargained benefit for members when they retire. This plan provides strict plan governance and oversight to ensure that the total fees, cost and structure benefit members and their families throughout their retirement years.
Brief overview of Scarborough Alliance and IBEW plan:
Scarborough Alliance offers the IBEW Local Unions Savings and Security Plan and the Local Union Retirement Program. The IBEW Plan is a qualified retirement plan that accepts Verizon Pension lump sum and Verizon Fidelity 401(k) rollovers.

-
- Scarborough acts in an ERISA fiduciary capacity for the IBEW Local Unions Savings and Security Plan (IBEW Plan).
- The plan has a high level of oversight and governance due to the ERISA fiduciary status.
- All fees, including investment and consulting, are overseen by the fiduciary team to ensure plan and costs are in the IBEW member’s best interests.
- IBEW trustees meet with the Fiduciary team (Trustees, legal, investment and Scarborough) on a quarterly basis, annually, to review the investments offered within the plan, including all recordkeeping, consulting, and administrative fees.
- Scarborough also offers the Local Union Retirement Income Program for investments that do not qualify to be rolled into the IBEW plan.

Webinar Topic: Retirement Readiness and an overview of the IBEW Local Unions Savings and Security Plan
Date: Tuesday August 11th 6pm
Register: Retirement Workshop for IBEW Members
Margaret Pierce will review the IBEW Local Unions Savings & Security Plan and how the plan benefits IBEW members when they retire. The IBEW Local Unions Savings & Security Plan is an IRS qualified defined contribution plan that was bargained for in 1979. The plan accepts tax-free rollovers from the Verizon 401(k) and lump sum pension. The plan enables members to invest and take out distributions throughout their retirement years. Scarborough acts an ERISA Fiduciary in serving the plan and its participants. In this capacity, Scarborough is mandated by ERISA to provide a stricter level of oversite related to fees and investments than an individual would have in an IRA.
