The post of Comptroller originated in 1928. Beginning in 1938, the office underwent a series of changes which, at different times, led to its incorporation under the departments of Business Administration, Assistant Treasurer and Business Manager, Office of the Treasurer and finally, in 1994, the Office of Financial Services.
