Money reportedly in secret store (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cache

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

'money reportedly' is the wordplay.
'money' becomes 'cash' (I've seen this before).
'reportedly' shows a homophone (sound like).
'cash' is a homophone of 'CACHE'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for cache that I've seen before include "memory" , "Secret store of valuables" , "Treasury" , "Hidden store of things" , "Concealed store" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
