      Historique

      In 1976 the Ontario Ministry of Consumer and Commercial Relations created the Financial Institutions Division, which assumed the functions of the Office of the Superintendent of Insurance as well as several other bodies. The former Superintendent of Insurance became the Executive Director of the new Division.

      Branches of the Division included the Cemeteries Branch, the Credit Unions and Co-operatives Services Branch, and the Motor Vehicle Accident Claims Branch. Several new branches were created by 1985, including the Investigations Branch, the Loan and Trust Operations Branch, and the Insurance Operations Branch. A new position of Superintendent of Deposit Institutions was established to administer the Loan and Trust Operations Branch and the Credit Unions and Co-operatives Services Branch. The position of Superintendent of Insurance was also re-established at this time in order to co-ordinate the activities of the Insurance Operations Branch. Overall responsibility for the division was at this time given to an Assistant Deputy Minister.

      In 1986, the Financial Institutions Division was elevated to Ministry status, becoming the Ontario Ministry of Financial Institutions. The responsibilities of the Superintendent of Insurance, along with the Motor Vehicle Accident Claims Branch, were continued by the Insurance Division of the new Ministry, while the responsibilities of the Superintendent of Deposit Institutions were continued by the Deposit Institutions Division.
