Sergey Yevgenyevich Naryshkin (Russian: Серге́й Евге́ньевич Нары́шкин; IPA: [sʲɪrˈɡʲej jɪˈvɡʲenʲɪvʲɪtɕ nɐˈrɨʂkʲɪn]; born 27 October 1954) is a Russian official, politician and businessman who has been Chairman of the State Duma (2011 - 2016). Previously he was head of the Administration of the President of Russia from May 2008 to December 2011; he was also chairman of the Historical Truth Commission in May 2009 until it was dissolved in February 2012.

Sergei Ivanovich Naryshkin was born in Leningrad and graduated from Leningrad Institute of Mechanics with a degree in engineering in 1978. In the 1990s he also graduated from International Management Institute of Saint Petersburg with a degree in economics.

In 2015, Naryshkin's dissertation in economics was exposed as fraudulent in an investigation by Dissernet, with more than half of the text plagiarized from other publications.

In 1982 he was appointed Deputy Vice-Rector of Leningrad Polytechnical Institute.

In the 1980s he served in the Soviet Embassy in Brussels. Some sources suggested that while there he worked for KGB after he had been a fellow student of Vladimir Putin at a group of KGB Higher School.

From 1992 until 1995 he worked in the Committee for Economy and Finance of Saint Petersburg Mayor Office. After he left, he became the chief of the external investment department of Promstroybank—a position he would hold until 1997.
