Agreed to end asset distribution (8)
I believe the answer is:
assented
'agreed' is the definition.
(assenting is a kind of agreeing)
'end asset distribution' is the wordplay.
'distribution' indicates anagramming the letters.
'end'+'asset'='endasset'
'endasset' with letters rearranged gives 'ASSENTED'.
'to' is the link.
(Other definitions for assented that I've seen before include "Consented" , "Expressed agreement" , "Given agreement" , "Agreed to do something" , "Acquiesced" .)
