The Strategic Council for Attractiveness (CSA), the body that drives Monaco’s international image and competitiveness, has a new leader. By Sovereign Ordinance published in the Journal de Monaco on 1st September, Ludmilla Raconnat Le Goff was appointed Delegate in charge of Attractiveness to the Minister of State and Secretary General of the CSA. A respected senior official, she will now be responsible for ensuring the Principality continues to shine as a destination for talent, investment and innovation.
Reporting directly to Minister of State Christophe Mirmand, Raconnat Le Goff will shape the Principality’s attractiveness policy in all its dimensions. According to a government statement, she will develop a strategic roadmap for 2025–2026, foster greater collaboration between public and private players, and coordinate a unified editorial line for all partners. Another key part of her mission will be the relaunch and ongoing activity of the CSA, ensuring that Monaco’s voice remains strong and distinctive on the global stage.
A career devoted to public service
Raconnat Le Goff, a graduate of Kedge Business School, has built her career within the Monegasque State. Since 2021 she has served as Director General of the Department of Social Affairs and Health, where she led reforms on pensions and teleworking, launched the Caisse Monégasque de Retraite Complémentaire (CMRC), and oversaw Monaco’s Covid-19 response. She has also represented the Principality on the boards of the Princess Grace Hospital Centre, the Cardio-thoracic Centre of Monaco, and the IM2S.
From economic promotion to senior leadership
Her early experience at the Monaco Economic Board between 2007 and 2009 saw her involved in international economic missions and promotional campaigns for the Principality. This foundation in economic diplomacy now aligns closely with her new responsibilities, where showcasing Monaco’s strengths abroad is a central task.
Following in Frédéric Genta’s footsteps
Raconnat Le Goff succeeds Frédéric Genta, who stepped down in April to take up the role of Chairman and Head of Europe at Azura Partners. With her appointment, the CSA enters a new chapter, bringing continuity and fresh impetus to the Principality’s long-term attractiveness strategy.
