Go ahead; make a loan (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

advance

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'go ahead' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'a loan' is the second definition.
(I know that advance is a type of loan)

'make' is the link.

(Other definitions for advance that I've seen before include "Early" , "Move forward like army or loan against wage" , "Forward - loan - increase" , "necessary to be recognised?" , "Publisher's payment" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
