We study subexponential tail asymptotics for the distribution of the maximum $M_t:=\sup_{u\in[0,t]}X_u$ of a process $X_t$ with negative drift for the entire range of $t>0$. We consider compound renewal processes with linear drift and L\'evy processes. For both we also formulate and prove the principle of a single big jump for their maxima. The class of compound renewal processes particularly includes Cram\'er-Lundberg risk process.
