Claims Made vs OccurrenceCommercial General Liability and other types of Personal Liability policies are generally "Occurrence" policies. This means "losses that occur during the policy term" are eligible for claims servicing. The policy active at the time of the loss is the policy that would address coverage.

An injury that occurred long before the policy became active could still be covered based on the retro active coverage date.
