Italo Pavoni MBA (born January 26th, 1966) is a Pacitalian politician and investment banker. He served as Minister of Transportation in the three Moya governments, between 2018 and 2024. He is a member of the Pacitalian Social Democratic Congress (PSDC).
On December 6th, 2024, Archonate Abeo Bamidele appointed Pavoni as formateur to head a provisional government, thus succeeding Damián Moya as Prime Minister of the Pacitalian Republic on an interim basis while the PSDC select a new leader. Pavoni is expected to take office December 9th, 2024.
Pavoni is a moderate who was a member of the more centrist Pacitalian Social Congress prior to the 2020 merger that created the PSDC.
As transportation minister, he tabled a bill in the Constazione Repubblicana to increase funding for public transit and commuter rail, followed by enabling legislation to permit a shortlist of 24 mid-sized cities in Pacitalia to build, expand or upgrade rapid transit systems. He successfully lobbied the finance ministry in 2022 to reallocate a larger portion of fuel tax revenue toward traffic calming, cycling, and pedestrian infrastructure in cities. Pavoni also implemented a nationwide reduction of the default speed limit in municipalities to 30 km/h.
Prior to entering politics, Pavoni had a lengthy career as an investment banker, joining Banco Principare Foringana out of university. He earned an MBA degree from the University of Mandragora. Pavoni's last private-sector role prior to running for office was as group head for cross-product sales at Banco di Mandragora's investment banking division.

Pavoni has been married to fellow banker Veronica Matriciella since 1999; together, they have four children, including twins – their eldest. The family are practicing Catholics.
