Morphology
The meaning is directly and predictably composed from 'financial' (connected with money) + 'support' (funding or help), so a learner who knows both words can infer it refers to monetary help or funding. This adjective+noun composition is a common, literal pattern cross-linguistically and follows straightforward English semantics, making it immediately comprehensible to a B1 learner.
Etymology
Financial support paints a simple image: financial means money and support means a hand or pillar that holds something up, so money 'holds up' a project. That's why it means 'money or resources given to make something possible'.
