I believe the answer is:

accrue

(Other definitions for accrue that I've seen before include "Be added to, develop" , "Accumulate over time" , "(Of money) build up in regular amounts" , "Grow like interest on money" , "Build up interest" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, the Sydney Morning Herald and The Guardian.
