      History

      In 1998, the Investment Division was created when the functions of the Business Development and Tourism Division were split into four new divisions.

      At various times during its existence, the Division consisted of Federal/Provincial Relations, Investment Branch, Business Immigration, International Investment Services, Key Investment Account Program, Ontario Investment Service, Investment Marketing and Sales Branch, International Investment Sales, Investment Marketing Section, and United States Investment Sales.

      In 2006, the Investment Division was replaced by the Trade and Investment Division, adding an additional export function to the former Investment Division's investment mandate.
