In this episode we will be discussing Sustainable Finance, why it is important, and what role data from space can play to grow its reach.

Show Notes

The transition to a sustainable global economy will be the most capital-intensive transition in human history.

Sustainable finance is about aligning the financial system with global sustainability. This focus is becoming increasingly relevant as our economic activities reach beyond the natural and social boundaries of our planet.

A new and resilient financial system is required to underpin this economic transition. Getting financial markets to integrate climate change, environmental, and social sustainability into their decision-making will help institutions appropriately manage risk and reduce losses.

But how can information from space empower this process?

Our host, Sarah Cruddas, is joined by Christophe Christiaen from the Oxford Sustainable Finance Programme, Mariam Crichton from 4EarthIntelligence, and Beth Burks from S&P Global.
