Morphology
The meaning is directly derived from combining 'economic' (relating to economics) with 'expert' (a person with deep knowledge), yielding a person specialized in economics. This adjective+noun composition is a transparent, compositional pattern common cross-linguistically, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily infer the phrase's meaning.
Etymology
The noun economic expert combines economic (which once meant managing a household's money and things) and expert (a person with special skill). So, an economic expert is someone who knows a lot about money, trade and the public 'economy' and can give advice.
