Reference information:
Ovo "vezivanje" sredstava može imati različita značenja

Primer: http://www.efri.uniri.hr/dokumenti/H.Blazic_Usp_por_sustavi-...
ograničavanje/sputavanje domaćeg gospodarstva - tzv. «odbrambeni prsten» (ring fencing) –porezne prednosti su izolirane od domaćeg tržišta, tj. domaće je gospodarstvo isključeno iz pružanja poreznih prednosti (povlastice ne utječu na nacionalnu poreznu osnovicu)

"What Does Ring Fence Mean?
A protection-based transfer of assets from one destination to another, usually through the use of offshore accounting."

Ali u konkretnom slučaju mislim da treba razmišljati u pravcu:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/working_lunch/7067601....
"Companies ring fence a certain amount of money on a credit card to ensure that the customer will be able to pay when it's time to settle the bill"

"The card issuer may 'ring-fence' the required amount of credit for up to five days (for UK cardholders)

shop online instead of a debit card, your funds are ring-fenced and you don't have any risk

~ Separating something from usual judgement and guaranteeing its protection, especially the funds of a project.

Origin

This term has been in use since the 1980s to denote the funds that are set aside for a project and cannot be spent on anything else. Before that it had a more general meaning, of anything that was protected. For example, this comment from Roger Eliot Fry, in his Letters, from January 1903:

"B.B. [Bernard Berenson] should not have it said that he is capable of political scheming to ring-fence Italian art."

These figurative uses all of course derive from the literal 'ring-fences' which were used to confine stock on farms. ~
