### 📈 What Is Accumulation-Focused Life Insurance?

This type of life insurance goes beyond just a death benefit. It’s designed to **accumulate cash value** that grows over time — often **tax-deferred** — and can be accessed later for:

* Retirement income
* Emergency funds
* Business needs
* Wealth transfer strategies

Policies like **Indexed Universal Life (IUL)** or **Whole Life Insurance** are popular vehicles for accumulation because of their **cash value growth potential**.
