Morphology
The meaning 'the date on which a financial obligation must be repaid' is directly and compositionally derived from combining 'maturity' (the time when something becomes due or reaches maturity) with 'date' (a calendar day). This noun–noun compound follows regular English composition patterns and is cross-linguistically transparent, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents can infer the meaning.
Etymology
The term maturity date comes from the image of fruit getting ripe: maturity means being fully grown and date means the day. So, it is the day the loan or bond must be 'repaid'.
