Defined benefit pension plans are one of the categories of pension plans that are subjected to the Supplemental Pension Plans Act. Because the benefits under such plans are set in advance under the plan's pension formula, such plans must meet very specific funding requirements. Thus, every defined benefit plan must undergo periodic valuations and if a deficit is identified, it is eliminated by as series of amortization payments to the pension fund. 4, record 1, English, - amortization%20payment

Les régimes à prestations déterminées constituent l'un des types de régimes de retraite assujettis à la Loi sur les régimes complémentaires de retraite. Ils sont soumis à des exigences de financement très spécifiques compte tenu de la nature des prestations qu'ils promettent : une rente dont la formule est fixée à l'avance. Il est donc nécessaire que chaque régime à prestations déterminées soit soumis à des évaluations actuarielles périodiques et que des cotisations spéciales permettent de renflouer la caisse du régime lorsque des déficits apparaissent. 6, record 1, French, - cotisation%20d%27%C3%A9quilibre
