DESCRIPTION: The climate change and the consequences from air and sea pollution\, loss of biodiversity and deforestation are causing a strong pressure on industries to adopt sustainable growth policies and foster a green recovery. The financial sector\, as an important global player\, has been committed in recent years to playing a decisive role in the transition towards a sustainable economy. Sustainable Finance\, through the integration of ESG (Environmental\, Social and Governance) factors in investment and decision-making processes\, has made important progresses in recent years. Historically\, the main sources of ESG data have been voluntary disclosures by the companies themselves. Although this practice has proved ineffective\, and the potential held by satellite technologies to support the system and verify the accountability of companies is becoming more and more well known\, bridging the gap between Space and Finance still seems to be quite a challenge. Why is it so\, and does finance really need space data?
