Results are based on data provided by you, and are neither reviewed nor verified by your employer or the CAAT Pension Plan. The DBplus Estimator lets you adjust some of the assumptions related to your retirement so you can test a variety of scenarios. However, other assumptions are built into the DBplus Estimator based on the Plan's actuarial assumptions, and Plan terms and these assumptions cannot be changed by the DBplus Estimator. You can learn more on our website.</p>
