Morphology
The meaning is directly derivable from combining 'retirement' (the period after leaving paid work) with 'fund' (a sum of money designated for a purpose): it straightforwardly denotes money set aside for retirement. This noun–noun compositional pattern is common and cross-linguistically transparent, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily understand the MWE.
Etymology
Retirement fund comes from retire, meaning to leave work, and fund, meaning a store of money. Imagine someone stepping away from their job with the money they saved to live on, so the phrase means money kept to pay you after you 'stop working'.
