Focus on going after foreign money (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

centre

'focus' is the definition.
('centre' can be a synonym of 'focus')

'on going after foreign money' is the wordplay.
'on' becomes 're' ('on' can be mean 'with reference to').
'going after' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'foreign money' becomes 'cent' (denomination of foreign currencies eg the euro).
're' put after 'cent' is 'CENTRE'.

(Other definitions for centre that I've seen before include "and this may follow 26, 25 [LEFT RIGHT]" , "Nucleus" , "Point equidistant from all other points" , "Midpoint" , "focus" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
