What drives this industry

Diversified banks compete on deposit-franchise quality (low-cost retail deposits = low-cost funding = sustained NIM advantage) + capital deployment discipline. Buffett's long-running BofA + JPM positions reflect the moat: massive deposit base + diversified loan book + global reach are hard to assemble from scratch. CET1 capital ratios above 12% + return-on-tangible-equity above 12% are the quality screen.
