Morphology
The meaning is directly compositional: 'banking' (financial business) modifies 'company' (an organization), so the phrase denotes an organization engaged in banking. This modifier + noun pattern is common and cross-linguistically transparent, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily infer the meaning.
Etymology
Banking company comes from the simple idea of a company that does banking: it keeps people's money safe and lends it to others. So, it means 'a firm that keeps people's money and lends it to others'.
