Financial interest in the post? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stake

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'financial interest' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'the post?' is the second definition.
('stake' can be a synonym of 'post')

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for stake that I've seen before include "Money placed as bet" , "Sum gambled" , "Amount wagered" , "Prize" , "Financial interest" .)
