Sort of economy that sees end of everything during row? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tiger

'sort of economy' is the definition.
(economic term)

'end of everything during row?' is the wordplay.
'end of' says to take the final letters.
'during' is an insertion indicator.
'row?' becomes 'tier' (a tier is a row of things).
The final letter of 'everything' is 'g'.
'g' inserted inside 'tier' is 'TIGER'.

'that sees' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for tiger that I've seen before include "Asian animal" , "See 13" , "Shere Khan's type" , "Fierce feline" , "Striped feline" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
