reallocate
Shift funds elsewhere
To reallocate is to assign something—typically resources, funds, or personnel—to a different purpose or recipient than originally intended.
The word implies a deliberate redistribution: The company reallocated budget from marketing to product development.
Governments reallocate spending, managers reallocate staff, and individuals reallocate time when priorities shift.
