Construction Insurance Online is part of the Financial Services Online network, owned and operated by Clark Family Pty Ltd (A.C.N. 010 281 008). We are dedicated to helping Australians connect with reputable providers of financial, credit, and insurance products and information online.
Construction Insurance Online operates as an introducer and referral service. We do not provide financial, credit, or insurance advice or credit assistance, nor do we recommend or endorse any specific products or providers. Product enquiries submitted through this website may be referred to participating licensed professionals - such as finance brokers, lenders, or insurance brokers—based on the information you provide and partner availability, so that you can deal with them directly. Referral allocation may also take account of operational and commercial factors, including bidding settings.
Our Referral Network and its Limitations
Our referral network consists of participating brokers, lenders, insurers and other providers and does not represent every provider or product available in the market. Being referred through Construction Insurance Online therefore does not mean that you will be presented with all products, providers, pricing, terms, cover or other options that may be available to you.
A participating broker or provider may be able to discuss or compare a range of options available through the lenders, insurers or other providers with whom they deal. The number and range of products considered will depend on that broker’s or provider’s own accreditations, panel, licensing arrangements and business relationships.
You may wish to consider any options presented to you alongside your existing arrangements and other alternatives available from different brokers, lenders, insurers or providers. You can also make your own independent enquiries or obtain additional comparisons before deciding whether a particular product or service is appropriate for you.
We do not determine which financial, credit or insurance product you should choose and do not represent that a referral made through our service will identify the lowest-priced, most suitable or otherwise preferable product available in the market.
In some cases, Construction Insurance Online or Clark Family Pty Ltd may receive a referral fee or commission from the third-party provider in consideration for facilitating the introduction. Ask the third-party provider about any applicable fees and product terms.
All information, articles, tools, and calculators published on this website are provided for general information purposes only and do not take into account your objectives, financial situation, or needs. You should not rely on this information as a substitute for independent advice from a suitably qualified and licensed professional.
Before acting on any information or applying for a product referred to by Construction Insurance Online, you should consider whether it is appropriate for your circumstances and, if necessary, seek personal advice from a qualified adviser, broker, or intermediary.
Our role is to connect consumers with licensed professionals and to facilitate access to specialist finance, credit, and insurance solutions across Australia.

Company Background
Clark Family Pty Ltd is the organisation responsible for the Financial Services Online network of websites, which includes Construction 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 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.
