One obscure possibility for the use of Halo to describe an account is for marketing campaign tracking purposes. Marketing may want to keep track of how many "target" accounts were opened (the specific goal of the campaign), as well as "halo" accounts - or any other type of account that was not the specified goal - that a contacted prospect/customer opened. I've seen it used this way in order to give Marketing two easy buckets to separate out their ROI tracking/campaign success.

A HALO account is an account which is restricted in such a way that large amounts cannot be posted to it (at least not with mgnt approval), .... HALO = High Amount Lock Out.
Next question?
