reallocation
Shifting funds elsewhere
Reallocation is the act of distributing something differently than before—shifting resources, funds, or assignments from one purpose or place to another.
Governments reallocate budgets when priorities change.
A company might announce a reallocation of staff to different departments.
The word implies that allocation already happened once; this is the redistribution.
