buyback program

Stock repurchase scheme

A buyback program is a plan by which an organization repurchases something it previously sold or distributed.

Companies buy back their own shares to reduce outstanding stock and boost share price.

Governments run gun buyback programs to reduce firearms in circulation.

The term implies systematic, ongoing repurchasing rather than one-time transactions.
