Papazian is a financial economist (PhD, University of Cambridge) and the author of Hardwiring Sustainability into Financial Mathematics and The Space Value of Money.

The Space Value of Money introduces a fresh and innovative perspective on sustainability and finance. It expands our financial value framework, heretofore built around risk and time, by factoring in space, as an analytical dimension and our physical context. The proposed principle and metrics entrench our responsibility for space impact into our value equations, making finance inherently sustainable and acting as a theoretical bridge between core finance theory and the growing field of sustainable finance or ESG integration. The book offers a novel approach to value design, measurement, and creation, discussing the theoretical, mathematical, institutional, technological and data elements of the transformation.The Space Value of Money principle and metrics offer us the opportunity to adjust our financial value framework and transform human productivity in line with our sustainability targets. They also enable the design and engineering of the financialinstruments that can help us address our evolutionary challenges/investment, like the transition to Net Zero.¿Every once in a while, a book comes along that makes a fundamental contribution that is both profound and practical. A book that every member of the National Space Council, including the NASA Administrator and the Space Force chief of space operations should read. The Space Value of Money will be of interest to ESG and impact investors, government regulators, financial theorists, and outer space enthusiasts.¿ ¿Lt Col Peter Garretson, Senior Fellow in Defense Studies at the American Foreign Policy Council¿No doubt, the pressing environmental challenges we face make the concept of the space impact of investments even more compelling.¿ ¿Dr. Pascal Blanqué, Chairman of Amundi Institute, Former Group CIO of Amundi Asset Management¿The Space Value of Money brings much needed conceptual rigour, whilst further advocating the case for a new paradigm shift in financial valuation. This work gives us the lasting frameworks that aggregate impact across all spatial dimensions.
