This helps when changing banks (6)
I believe the answer is:
bridge
'this helps when changing banks' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
This is all the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for bridge that I've seen before include "Span, connecting structure" , "Card-game" , "link" , "Game; crossing" , "Game; cross (river)" .)
