Delete. Compare short-haired, where short- is not a prefix nor -haired a suffix. Equinox 02:09, 5 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
Comment: I have added the sense of backed up by as in a government-backed loan. Check it please. — TAKASUGI Shinji (talk) 00:48, 11 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
This is also not a suffix but a compound. Equinox 23:58, 21 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
I have done a little to backed#Adjective to make sure that it covers the compounds. But a word like hunchbacked seems as likely to be from hunchback + -ed as from hunch + backed. DCDuring TALK 00:48, 22 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
