Morphology
The meaning 'a financial account for use after one retires' is directly derivable from combining 'retirement' (leaving work) and 'account' (a record or place for money), so the compound describes an account designated for retirement savings. This compositional pattern (noun + noun denoting purpose) is common across languages and within English, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily understand it.
Etymology
Retirement account comes from the idea of a special account where you keep money for when you retire, or 'stop work'. Imagine a locked box or piggy bank labelled 'retirement' where you add money bit by bit so you can use it 'later', and that's why the phrase means a savings plan to use after you leave work.
