Lui looks indeed like the subject of the sentence:
Lui n’est pas au courant de cela.
but the sentence can be understood as a shortened version of:
Lui, il n’est pas au courant de cela. (He himself is unaware of that)
where lui is effectively disjunctive, in apposition. Lui is emphatic and il, being redundant, is dropped.
