Financiers swapping area for love? That's crazy! (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bonkers

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

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

'financiers swapping area for love?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'love?' could be 'bonk' ('bonk' can be a synonym of 'love') and 'bonk' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'ers' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'that's' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for bonkers that I've seen before include "Quite mad" , "Lovers" , "Slang for crazy, off the wall" , "Nuts" , "Out to lunch" .)
