It helps distinguish documented conditions from questions that management should monitor. Political and legal factors may affect supervisory expectations and consumer protections; economic conditions can influence affordability, savings behaviour and business demand for credit. Social expectations can shape the need for accessible guidance, while technology creates both service opportunities and operational resilience considerations.

This distinction is valuable for a bank where customer relationships, product expertise, digital capability, risk management, workforce skills and operating cost discipline may all require assessment, but should not automatically be labelled strengths or weaknesses without evidence. Opportunities may arise from changing customer journeys or unmet business needs, while threats may include competitive pressure, cyber risk, economic uncertainty or shifts in regulation.
