Morphology
The meaning is directly and compositionally derived from 'economic' (relating to the economy) modifying 'policy' (a plan or course of action), so a learner who knows both words can infer it refers to a plan about the economy. This modifier+noun structure is common cross-linguistically and follows standard English compounding patterns, making it readily understandable to a B1 learner.
Etymology
The compound economic policy comes from two simple ideas: economic is about managing money and resources like a household, and policy means a 'plan' or 'way of doing things'. So economic policy is the government's plan for how to run the country's money and economy.
