Topical story - that's where the money is (7,7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

current account

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'where the money is' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how one could define the other.

'topical story' is the wordplay.
'topical' becomes 'current' (similar in meaning).
'story' becomes 'account' (synonyms).
'current'+'account'='CURRENT ACCOUNT'

'that's' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for current account that I've seen is " Banking facility".)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
