When do Swedish civil engineer Ivar Kreuger was died ?”

Ivar Kreuger (March 2, 1880 – March 12, 1932) was a Swedish civil engineer, financier, entrepreneur and industrialist. In 1908 Kreuger co-founded the construction company Kreuger & Toll Byggnads AB which specialized in new building techniques. By aggressive investments and innovative financial instruments he built a global match and financial empire. Between the two world wars, he negotiated match monopolies with European and Central and South American governments, and finally controlled two thirds of the worldwide match production, and became known as the “Match King”. Kreuger’s financial empire, described by some as a Ponzi scheme, based on the supposedly fantastic profitability of Kreuger’s match monopolies, collapsed during the Great Depression, and in March 1932, he shot and killed himself. But on March 12, he was found dead in bed in his apartment at Avenue Victor Emanuel III. After questioning Kreuger’s servants, the French police came to the conclusion that he had shot himself
