About The Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board (FRTIB)

The Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board (FRTIB or Agency) is an independent Federal Agency in the Executive branch created by the Federal Employees’ Retirement System Act of 1986 (FERSA), Pub. L. No. 99-335, 100 Stat. 514 (codified as amended largely at 5 U.S.C. § 8351 and §§ 8401-79) to administer the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP). The TSP is a daily-valued, participant-directed retirement savings and investment plan for Federal civilian employees and members of the uniformed services. It offers its participants the same type of saving and tax benefits that many private corporations offer their employees under 401(k) plans. The TSP is the largest defined contribution plan in the world covering millions of participants and managing multi-billion-dollar assets. The Agency’s mission is to act solely in the interests of the TSP participants and beneficiaries and to carry out the policies set by the Board members for investment, administration, and management of the TSP.
