Biography

Loïk Gérard Henri Marie Joseph Le Floch-Prigent (21 September 1943 – 15 July 2025) was a French engineer and businessman. He was CEO of Elf Aquitaine between July 1989 and 1993, then president of SNCF from December 1995 to July 1996, when he was indicted in connection with the Elf affair. He is particularly known in the "Françafrique" circles. In September 2012, Le Floch-Prigent was charged with being an accessory to fraud whilst in Togo after a complaint from an Emirati businessman was filed claiming that he had been manipulated out of $48 million. He was extradited from Ivory Coast and appeared before a judge where he was questioned for three hours in Lomé.
