A [[self-help remedy]] in the securities markets where a market counterparty is unable to perform its obligations to deliver securities under an existing transaction, such as a securities sale or a [[stock loan]]. Since the selliung counterparty is failing to pony up what it owes — and by the way this may not be the counterparty’s fault: it may be the wrong end of an upstream fail, or there may be a general market dislocation — the buyer takes matters into its own hands and “buys in”  from another source to satisfy its own requirements.


This has two consequences: firstly — assuming the buy in settles — the buyer no-longer needs the securities it originally bought from the failing seller. So the failing seller is stuck with these. Secondly, the ''price'' at which the buyer executes the buy-in transaction will almost certainly differ from price agreed for the original failed trade. The buyer can pass its loss on to the failing seller.
