Edward Franciszek Szczepanik (1915 - died 11 October 2005 in Worcestershire) was a Polish economist and the last Prime Minister of the Polish government in exile.

Edward Franciszek Szczepanik was born August 22, 1915 in Suwałki, a small town in northern Poland, then part of Imperial Russia under German occupation. He went to the local grammar school and studied at the Warsaw School of Economics (SGH). He studied for his MA in political economy under Professor Edward Lipiński in 1936. During his compulsory military service he was stationed at the Artillery Officers' School and was stationed with the 29th Light Artillery Regiment. He won a scholarship to study at the London School of Economics, studying under Professors Lionel Robbins, Friedrich Hayek and Rosenstein-Rodan. On his return he became an assistant in Lipiński's department in SGH.

During the September campaign he was captured by the Soviet forces and in 1940-1941 was a prisoner of the Soviet Gulag. Following the outbreak of the Russo-German War and signing of the Sikorski-Mayski Agreement he was released and joined the Polish II Corps under general Władysław Anders. After the war he remained in exile and worked for the Food and Agriculture Organization from 1963 to 1977. In 1986 he was chosen as a successor of Kazimierz Sabbat as the Prime Minister of the Polish exiled government. After Sabbat's death, his successor as the president of Poland in exile Ryszard Kaczorowski asked him to continue his mission. It ended after Poland regained her independence and the pre-war insignia of power were returned to Warsaw in 1990.

Szczepanik was awarded a doctorate honoris causa by SGH in 1995. He died 11 October, 2005 in Worcestershire and his remnants were buried in his home town of Suwałki.
