Historique

The Financial Services Commission of Ontario (FSCO) was established effective July 1, 1998, the result of a merger between the Deposit Institutions Division of the Ministry of Finance, the Ontario Insurance Commission, and the Pension Commission of Ontario.

The Commission is comprised of a Chair, two Vice-Chairs, the Director of Arbitration (responsible for automobile insurance dispute resolution), and the Superintendent of Financial Services (responsbile for the Commission's internal administration and activities).

In 1998, the Commission was comprised of the Automobile Insurance Analysis Division, the Licensing and Enforcement Division, the Policy and Communications Branch, the Pension Plans Branch, and the Office of the Ombudsman.

A reorganization took place in 2001. The Commission was comprised of the Automobile Insurance Division, the Licensing and Compliance division, the Ombudsman/Dispute Resolution Division, the Pension Division, the Corporate Services Branch (became a Division in 2004), the Corporate Policy and Public Affairs Branch, and the Legal Services Branch.

In 2004, the Automobile Insurance Division and the Ombudsman/Dispute Resolution Division were merged to form the Automobile Insurance Services Division. Also, the Licensing and Compliance Division was renamed the Licensing and Market Conduct Division.
