Company Background
Clark Family Pty Ltd is the organisation responsible for the Financial Services Online network of websites, which includes Public Liability Insurance Online. The network consists of a number of Australian-based online platforms designed to help consumers and businesses locate information about financial services and submit enquiries to appropriately licensed providers operating in their specialist fields.
The business was founded by Andrew Clark, who began his career in the Australian financial services industry as an insurance broker. Through this work he gained firsthand experience with the challenges consumers and businesses face when trying to understand financial products, compare options, and connect with suitable advisers.
Recognising the growing role of the internet as a research and communication tool, Andrew Clark established Financial Services Online to make it easier for individuals and businesses to research financial products and connect with qualified advisers where appropriate. The objective was to create an online environment where visitors could access general information, practical tools, and the ability to submit enquiries to licensed professionals in relevant specialist areas.
Over time, the network has expanded to include a range of specialised websites covering various lending and insurance categories. As the platform developed, the company also grew from a founder-led initiative into a small team supporting the ongoing development, maintenance, and administration of the network.
Clark Family Pty Ltd maintains the technology and operational framework that supports these platforms, while participating licensed providers remain responsible for providing any specific financial advice or product recommendations. The business continues to focus on transparency, regulatory compliance, and the efficient matching of enquiries with licensed providers.
