Defined contribution (DC) pensions are plans under
which the contributions into the Fund are pre-determined but
the benefit is not. Contributions are made by individual
members and(or) by sponsoring employers (in the case of
occupational DC funds), and invested to accumulate a balance
at the time of retirement which is then withdrawn or used to
buy a retirement product (such as an annuity).
The term DC applies to a wide range of plans
worldwide, ranging from “pure DC” where member benefits
derive totally from contributions plus investment returns, to
schemes where some minimum level of benefit is guaranteed.
There is, in addition, considerable variation in DC systems
across the world, depending in particular on whether or not
they are intended to be a major source of retirement income
(i.e. their interaction with the public pension system), the extent
to which participation is mandatory, the extent of consumer
choice and the market competition within the system.
Many DC systems are still fairly new and in many
countries few individuals have retired under predominantly DC
arrangements. However, DC supervision becomes more
important as these systems develop and mature and supervisory
authorities are consequently asking whether and how their
supervisory approach needs to adapt to the introduction of
these plans. International Organization of Pension Supervisors – IOPS (adapted).

Based on the text above, judge the following items.

The expression “in addition” (L.12) means furthermore.
