Aid in the form of money (7)

I believe the answer is:

subsidy

(Other definitions for subsidy that I've seen before include "Financial aid" , "Grant given to help with running costs" , "Supporting grant" , "Money granted to support an undertaking" , "Monetary aid" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
