Morphology

nonfinancial = financial (transparent) = non + financial

The prefix 'non-' clearly negates the adjective 'financial', making the meaning straightforward.

Etymology

Nonfinancial is made of the part non- meaning 'not' and financial, from finance meaning 'money' or 'managing money'. So, nonfinancial describes something that is 'not about money'.
