Q: What are the differences of a pure Claims Made policy and a Claims Made policy with Extended Reporting?

Occurrence plus policies, or policies with Extended Reporting, have a built-in extended reporting endorsement or "tail" provision that allows for claims to continue to be reported after the last renewed policy expires. Pure Claims Made policies do not automatically include the extended reporting provision. But, pure Claims Made policies do offer the policyholder the right to purchase this extended reporting coverage when the last renewed policy expires.
