Morphology
The meaning 'conducting banking transactions from home' is directly and compositionally derived from 'home' (one's residence) + 'banking' (financial services). This literal location/mode compound follows common English compounding patterns and has clear equivalents in many languages, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily understand it.
Etymology
Home banking comes from the simple idea of doing banking at home with a phone or computer. That's why it means 'doing bank tasks from home'.
