Business information in current year (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

agency

'business' is the definition.
(I know that agency is a type of business)

'information in current year' is the wordplay.
'information' becomes 'gen' (gen can informally mean information).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'current' becomes 'ac' (alternating current).
'year' becomes 'y'.
'gen' placed within 'ac' is 'agenc'.
'agenc'+'y'='AGENCY'

(Other definitions for agency that I've seen before include "Business serving other businesses" , "Business that represents actors etc." , "Business that acts for other businesses" , "Through which something is accomplished" , "Government unit - business providing services" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
