Ivan Pavlovich Shipov (23 June 1865 – 1919) was a Russian statesman and financier who served in several senior positions in the Russian Empire, including Minister of Finance (1905–1906), Minister of Trade and Industry (1908–1909), and Governor of the State Bank of the Russian Empire (1914–1917). Following the October Revolution, Shipov became notable for his organized resistance to Bolshevik attempts to seize control of the State Bank, refusing to recognize the legitimacy of the Soviet of People's Commissars. After his dismissal, he joined the White movement in southern Russia and participated in the VSYUR administration before his death, likely from typhus, in late 1919.
