disbursal

Giving out money

Disbursal is the act of paying out or distributing funds, especially from a designated account or fund.

The word appears in financial and administrative contexts: The disbursal of grant money was delayed by paperwork.

It's interchangeable with disbursement, though disbursement is more common.
