Accumulation Period
Time frame during which an annuitant makes premium payments to an insurance company. The obligations of the company to the annuitant during this period depend on whether a pure annuity or refund annuity is involved. Many factors enter an annuity purchase, but some experts suggest a pure annuity to minimize cost and if there are no dependents. In other circumstances a refund annuity might be considered.
