Morphology
The meaning 'amount of money paid back over a period' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'repayment' (returning borrowed funds) with 'rate' (amount per unit/time). This noun–noun composition follows ordinary compounding patterns common across languages and in financial contexts, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
The phrase repayment rate paints a simple picture: imagine repayment as money flowing back to a lender like water in a pipe, and the rate shows how much comes back in a set time. So, repayment rate means the amount of money paid back over a period, and a higher rate clears the debt faster.
