Middle Eastern Republic gets kick-start from a group of financiers (6)
I believe the answer is:
troika
'group of financiers' is the definition.
'troika' can be an answer for 'group' (I have seen 'Group of three ' mean 'troika' so perhaps 'group' could also mean 'troika'). I'm unsure of the 'of financiers' bit.
'middle eastern republic gets kick-start from a' is the wordplay.
'middle eastern republic' becomes 'troi' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'gets' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'kick-start' becomes 'k' (start of the word 'kick-').
'from' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'troi'+'k'+'a'='TROIKA'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for troika that I've seen before include "Group of three" , "Threesome" , "cart" , "Russian vehicle pulled by three horses" , "Russian horse-drawn vehicle" .)
