Morphology
The phrase literally describes a fund that is traded on an exchange: 'exchange' (place where stocks are traded) + 'traded' (being bought and sold) + 'fund' (a pooled investment). This compositional, adjective-noun pattern is regular and has equivalents in many languages, so a B1 learner who knows the parts can readily infer the meaning.
Etymology
Exchange traded fund comes from a simple image: a fund is like a basket of many stocks, and it is traded on an exchange, the stock market. So, the name means 'an investment fund you can buy and sell on a stock exchange', which is why it refers to that kind of investment.
