RISK-BASED HAIRCUT
A reduction in the recognized value of an asset in order to produce an estimate for the level of margin or financial leverage that is acceptable to use when purchasing or continuing to own the asset. An analyst undertaking a risk-based haircut of an asset attempts to determine the chances of the asset's value falling below its current level, so that a sufficient buffer can be established to protect against a margin call.
