Moneylending at high interest (5)

I believe the answer is:

usury

(Other definitions for usury that I've seen before include "The lending of money at high rates" , "Loan sharking" , "Loaning money at high interest" , "Shylock's calling" , "Grasping moneylending" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
