A restriction that the initial cost of all allocated resources equals the available budget. In a portfolio with risky holdings $\theta$ and bank holdings $x$, the displayed equation is the budget identity. Barring borrowing makes $x\geq0$, equivalently $S_0^T\theta\leq w_0$; banning the bank account instead imposes equality.
