105.925. Participation in plans requires written agreement — funding — other plans not precluded. — 1. As provided in sections 105.900 to 105.925 , any city, county, institution of the state of Missouri, or other political subdivision may establish for its employees a deferred compensation program. Participation shall be by written agreement between such employees and the legislative authority of the city, county, institution, or other political subdivision providing for the deferral of such compensation and the subsequent investment and administration of such funds.

2. For purposes of funding such agreements between the city, county, institution, or other such political subdivision and the participating employees, the agency or department as designated by the legislative authority to establish and administer such plans may invest such funds, with the consent of the participating employee, in such investments deemed appropriate by said agency or department, including, but not limited to, life insurance or annuity contracts. Such payments shall not be construed to be a prohibited use of the general assets of the political subdivision.

3. Notwithstanding any provision of sections 105.900 to 105.925 of the Missouri revised statutes to the contrary, this section does not limit the power or authority of any city, county, municipal corporation, political subdivision, or any institution supported in whole or in part by public funds to establish and administer any other such deferred compensation plans as might be deemed appropriate by the officials of such subdivisions or institutions. Providing, however, that in no case may any insurance or investment as authorized under such a plan be offered by other than a duly licensed resident agent representing a company duly licensed and authorized by the state of Missouri and other applicable federal regulatory agencies to offer such insurance or investment programs in compliance with all provisions of this code.
