Background

Who HP Pension Plan is.

Where the institution came from, whose capital it manages, and how that capital is allocated — from Dealroom's LP research.

Historical Background

  • The HP Pension Plan is a retirement benefits scheme established under a trust for the employees of Hewlett-Packard.
  • Following the separation of Hewlett-Packard into HP Inc. and Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) in 2015, the pension obligations were also separated, with each company maintaining its own set of plans.

Source of Capital

  • The plan's capital is derived from contributions made by Hewlett-Packard (and now HP Inc. and HPE) to fund the pension benefits for its employees and retirees.
  • These are defined benefit pension plans, where the employer is responsible for ensuring there are sufficient funds to meet its obligations to pensioners.

Major Events

  • In 2015, in conjunction with the company's separation, the pension plans were divided between HP Inc. and Hewlett Packard Enterprise.
  • In 2021, the HP Inc. Pension Plan began a process of de-risking by purchasing a group annuity contract from Prudential to transfer a portion of its pension obligations.
