Wang Qishan (/wɑːŋ tʃiːˈʃɑːn/; Chinese: 王岐山; Wade–Giles: Wang Ch'i-shan; born 19 July 1948) is a retired Chinese politician who was one of the leading members of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

Wang gained prominence in China's financial sector in the late 1980s. In 1994, Wang became the governor of the China Construction Bank. Wang then successively served in three regional roles: vice governor of Guangdong, Party secretary of Hainan, and Mayor of Beijing. Wang then served as vice premier in charge of finance and commercial affairs under Premier Wen Jiabao from March 2008 to March 2013, during which he also gained a seat on the Politburo.
