Last one. 15d Begged branch, after opening to cut premium (8)
B - S - U - H - Looks like BESOUGHT.
Don't know if it is just me, but did anyone else find this one unusually obscure and hard?
Thanks for help.

(b)ough in best ?
yes BESOUGHT

branchafter opening = (b)OUGH
premium = BEST

'to cut' means put the former in the middle of the latter => besOUGHt
