Yes, that's correct. Employers only contribute a fixed amount, so the investment risk falls on the employees.

Ha! Both of them, like a seesaw. The employees are on one end, the employers on the other. Gotta keep that balance, am I right?

Definitely the employers. They're the ones who have to make the contributions and ensure the plan is properly funded.

The employees, of course. They're the ones who have to bear the risk of their investments in the plan.
