Alexandre Galopin (1879 - 1944) was a Belgian businessman. He was director of the Société Générale de Belgique, a large Belgian company founded in 1822 by William I.
Galopin was behind the Galopin doctrine, a "lesser evil" tactic that allowed industrial development in the occupied Belgium during the Second World War, under auspices of the Belgian government in exile.
In 1944, Galopin was assassinated by Robert Jan Verbelen, a Nazi collaborator.
