Regional Selective Assistance (RSA) was a discretionary grant which gave Scottish companies another potential source of funding for investment[1]. In total since 2010 over £95 million of RSA were accepted by SMEs in Scotland.[2]
Since 2010 RSA grants helped to either maintain or generate more than 20,000 jobs across Scotland. That firms had multiple avenues of funding was a positive feature that performed an important role in generating and supporting Scottish jobs.[3]
