What does a banking app need that a PWA can not provide?

Technically nothing.
In practice, banks will demand remote attestation of the environment the app is running in.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a good "Remote Attestation 101" tutorial? I'm trying to wrap my head around why someone couldn't just run an Android emulator to run your banking app or whatever. I mean there then must be hardware keys that are not present in the code, but then there must be a revocation method for compromised hardware keys, etc..
