Antoine Armand (French pronunciation: [ɑ̃twan aʁmɑ̃]; born 10 September 1991) is a French civil servant and politician who served as the Minister of the Economy, Finance and Industrial and Digital Sovereignty from September to December 2024. He previously represented the 2nd constituency of the Haute-Savoie department in the National Assembly from 2022 to 2024. A member of Renaissance (RE, formerly La République En Marche!), he served as the president of the National Assembly Committee on Economic Affairs from 2022 to 2024.
In September 2024, French President Emmanuel Macron appointed Armand as Minister of the Economy, Finance and Industrial and Digital Sovereignty. At 33 years old, Armand became one of the youngest ministers to hold this position in recent French history. His appointment came at a time when the government faced economic challenges and the need for fiscal management.
