Raymond Poincaré, who had again become prime minister of France in 1922, asked industrialist Ernest Mercier to lead the Compagnie Française des Pétroles (CFP) in 1923. CFP became a private company, but the government did have an important say in the composition of the board. The interest in Turkish Petroleum was transferred to CFP. In 1928, a state commission came to the conclusion that a greater interest in this important market would have served the French government. She took a 25% equity stake in CFP. The working area of the company remained mainly the Middle East.
