  Section 20.055 (2), Florida Statutes, provides that the Office of Inspector General is established in each state agency to provide a central point for coordination of and responsibility for activities that promote accountability, integrity and efficiency in government. Investigations are designed to detect, deter, prevent and eradicate fraud, mismanagement, misconduct and other abuses in state government. The major responsibilities of the OIG include investigations, audits, reviews, consulting and technical assistance activities.

The Offices of Insurance Regulation (OIR) and Financial Regulation (OIR) each have their own separate Inspectors General. On occasion, the DFS IG may work with the OIR or OFR inspectors general on projects of mutual interest.
