From the third quarter of 2019 to the third quarter of 2023, the highest level of benefits made to pension funds in the United Kingdom (UK) came from the defined benefits and hybrid (DBH) scheme of the private sector. This same scheme type mirrored in the public sector added less than half the total value of benefits.

Defined benefit plans are protected, within certain limitations, by federal insurance provided through the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC). This is different from a defined contribution plan which does not promise a specific amount of benefits at retirement. A hybrid pension scheme is one which is neither a fully defined benefit (DB) scheme or a fully defined contribution (DC).Defined benefit and hybrid (DBH) is the combination of both.
