'nets' is the definition.
(purse seine is a kind of net)

'banker in paris dividing bags of money' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'in' is within the answer.
'bags' could be 'purses' ('purse' can be a synonym of 'bag') and 'purses' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'ees' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
