If service, technology, product quality and employee execution remain competitive while costs are managed, Bank of America could sustain its ability to compete.
Supporting filing ↗The strongest caution
A sudden or prolonged market downturn could reduce net interest income and noninterest income and adversely affect results, including capital and liquidity levels.

Inspect the evidence behind both sides ↗4. Three questions worth investigating
Use these to guide your research, not as conclusions that have already been proved.
How exposed are results to competition from non-traditional firms?
Starting evidence: The company reports increasing competition from internet-only firms and nonfinancial companies using emerging technologies, such as digital assets, alongside traditional banking competitors.
Investigate next: Review segment disclosures for evidence of where non-bank and technology-driven competitors are affecting products, pricing or customer relationships.
Read the supporting filing ↗How sensitive is net interest income to rate and policy shifts?
Starting evidence: Central bank actions on target rates and balance sheets are beyond the company's control and difficult to predict, which may affect interest rates and financial asset values.
Investigate next: Examine the interest rate risk management disclosures for banking book net interest income sensitivity and the assumptions behind it.
Read the supporting filing ↗Could credit losses exceed current expectations?
Starting evidence: The company warns that future credit losses may be higher than currently expected, including through changes in economic assumptions such as unemployment and real estate prices.
Investigate next: Study the consumer and commercial portfolio credit risk sections for concentrations, loss assumptions and how reserves respond to changed economic assumptions.
