Bus/Financial - Law: Taxation & Customs / Emplyee Benefit Plans
English term or phrase: an affected plan
The term appears in numerous documents concerning benefit plans. The application of the regular meaning of "affected" does not work here. Following is the sentence from which the term is taken. Can you help?

It is therefore incumbent upon all involved in an affected plan to assure that any selection of lawyers to provide service be based on some rational process and that steps are taken to assure that the compensation paid to such attorneys bear some reasonable relationship to the actual work performed for members of the plan.

תכנית בעלת זיקה
Explanation:
The word affect also means to have affinity for. One of the translations Babylon suggests is:
affected = -להיות בעל זיקה מסוימת לגבי

I think this makes sense in your context:
It is therefore incumbent upon all involved in an affected plan to assure that any selection of lawyers to provide service be based on some rational process...
...לפיכך, חובה על כל המעורבים בתכנית (פנסיה?) בעלת זיקה להבטיח כי בחירת עורכי הדין אשר יספקו שירותים תתבסס על תהליך רציונלי

In the link, search for the word זיקה.
I'm wondering if in your text the זיקה is of a person towards a pension products or of a person towards his appointed beneficiaries.
If you had another example of this term, it would be helpful.

תוכנית עליה חלים הכללים - או החוק או ההוראות


Explanation:
this is just a suggestion.

I am assuming you disliked the following

תוכנית מושפעת


explanation

in various cases a new set of rules are adopted or enacted that affect a plan.

typically the new rules have a definition paragraph to determine when the new set of rules apply and which plans are affected by them.

so in order to avoid using the straight forward translation of

תוכנית מושפעת

I would like to suggest

תוכנית עליה חלים הכללים - או החוק או ההוראות

or

תוכנית אשר מושפעת מן הכללים - או מן החוק או מן ההוראות

hope this helps....

קרן//תוכנית גמלאות שנפגעה מאסון /// הפרשות לקרן//תוכנית גמלאות וכו'


Explanation:
ההתייחסות היא להשפעה שלילית של אסונות טבע על הפרשות לתוכניות גמלאות.
The IRS announced today that they would be extending the deadline for defined contribution retirement plan sponsors that were affected by flooding, storms, or other natural disasters in several states.
... A plan is an “affected plan” only if any of the following locations relating to the plan were in the federally declared disaster areas at the time of the disasters:

1. The principal place of business of the employer that maintains the plan; 2. The principal place of business of the employer that employs more than 50 percent of the active participants covered by the plan;.... or 5. The office of any advisor that had been retained by the plan or the employer at the time of the storms or other severe weather that is directly involved with the adoption of the plan or the submission of a determination letter application to the IRS.
