ClearView was launched in 1976, with a relaunch in 2010. Originally a registered life insurer called NRMA Life, they focused on providing insurance to customers of the NRMA. However, over time they have expanded to become a diversified financial services company. Today they manage some $2.5 billion in funds for their clients, and their 243 financial advisers provide management and advice for a further $8.9 billion.
