I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'asian banker's' is the definition.
(a river, ie something with 'banks')

I can't explain the remainder of the clue.

(Other definitions for indus that I've seen before include "Largest river of Pakistan" , "Asian runner" , "River giving its name to an early civilisation" , "River rising in Tibet" , "9 of Pakistan" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
