Morphology
The meaning is directly derivable from combining 'pecuniary' (pertaining to money) with 'resource' (available funds or support), so it denotes resources in monetary form. The adjective+noun composition is a standard, compositional pattern (despite the formal register of 'pecuniary'), so a learner who knows both constituents will readily understand the phrase.
Etymology
Pecuniary resource names the money someone has; pecuniary is an old word for money and resource means something you can use, so imagine a box of cash you can open when needed. So, it means 'assets' or 'funds'.
