Morphology

non-settling = settling (transparent) = non + settle + ing

Formed by the productive negative prefix 'non-' added to 'settling' (the process of completing a transaction); the meaning 'not completing/clearing' is directly derivable.

Etymology

Non-settling is built from non- ('not') and settle ('to finish or pay'), like when you 'settle a bill'. So a non-settling transaction is one that has not been completed or paid and still needs attention.
