Portuguese term (edited): constrição de
Selected

restraint on; lien over

The only thing I'm sure of is that it's not a constriction, rather a constraint, lien or restraint *on*, E&W: charging order *over*, freezing or AmE: liening *of*,
Example sentence:

constrição judicial English translation: Mark R. judicial lien (E&W perhaps: a 'court charging order).

Accounts can be frozen or restrained once a judge signs the order

constriction

Depending on your context, I would translate it as "constriction of assets" or "constriction of equity".

"TYPES OF FINANCIAL CONSTRAINTS
Financial constraints are specific and objective obstacles rather than being general or subjective in nature. This distinguishes ............(etc...)
For the investor, a financial constraint is any factor that restricts the amount or quality of investment options. They can be internal or external (the examples above could both be considered a form of internal constraint, such as lack of knowledge or poor cash flow). Every investor faces both internal and external constraints."

Example sentence:

"One of the agents faces a mandatory savings CONSTRAINT modelled as a lower bound on the value of the holdings of the risk-free bond, and short-sale CONSTRAINTS ON THE OTHER ASSETS."
