Explanation:
Pouze odhad jak by se to dalo prelozit.
Viz definice ze slovniku International Financial Risk Institute:

(1) The margin or, more frequently, the capital tied up when a financial intermediary takes a position. (2) A commission or fee for execution of a transaction (uncommon). (3) The collateral held by the lender in a REPO transaction

Dale viz priklad uziti v tisku:

In the chaebol's "great universe," nothing was impossible. Daewoo collapsed last year with over $80 billion in debts — making it the biggest corporate collapse in history. Its main creditor banks are taking a huge haircut — or taking home less than 20 cents of every dollar they lent.

Dale jsem to nasla v kontextu, kde to muze znamenat \"snizeni hodnoty\".

A take proste \"marze\" - viz dalsi definici (zatim nejlepsi, kterou jsem nasla):

HAIRCUT In lending, the difference between the value of a loan and the value of the collateral securing that loan. Or more generally, a term used for any of a wide variety of spreads and margins.

Explanation:
I believe "haircut" is a metaphor; the meaning is the same as "cut". (The metaphor might be also sugesting that it is not a permanent cut; it also suits your examples.)
My dictionary says "Haircut finance" = "Ostříhané finance". You could also say "Osekané finance".
However, talking about a noun, I would simply say "snížení". Or maybe "osekání financí" or even "sestřižení financí" if the context makes the metaphor clear.

Omlouvám se za anglické vysvětlení; až teď jsem si všiml, že požadujete vysvětlení v ČJ. Nevadí?
