Morphology
As a capitalized proper name, "New Deal" refers to a specific historical, large-scale set of government reforms under F.D.R.; the constituents 'new' + 'deal' only suggest a recent agreement or policy initiative and do not by themselves convey the specialized historical/political scope. A B1 learner who knows the words would get a vague sense of a 'new policy/agreement' but not the full, culturally specific meaning, so the expression is partially but not fully transparent.
Etymology
New Deal comes from President Franklin D. Roosevelt's promise in the 1930s of 'a new deal'—like getting a fresh deal of cards to have a new start. So New Deal became the name for his set of government programs to fight the Great Depression.
