Extortionate moneylending (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

usury

'extortionate moneylending' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for usury that I've seen before include "High-interest lending" , "Extortionate lending" , "Taking a lot of interest" , "Loaning money at high interest" , "Taking excessive interest" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Guardian.
