Pledge — guarantee (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

surety

This clue is a double definition.

'pledge' is the first definition.
(I know that surety is a type of guarantee)

'guarantee' is the second definition.
(I know that surety is a type of guarantee)

(Other definitions for surety that I've seen before include "Money given as guarantee of action" , "Legal safeguard against loss" , "Semitic language" , "Safeguard given against financial loss" , "Guarantee (for pledge)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
