Joint bank statement revealing some doubts (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reefer

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

'joint' is the definition.
(informal term for a marijuana joint)

'bank statement revealing some doubts' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'bank' could be 'reef' (I've seen this before) and 'reef' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'er' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for reefer that I've seen before include "A wool jacket; a spliff" , "packed with cannabis?" , "Joint; spliff" , "Something designed for smoking" , "Type of jacket - smoke" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
