You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.197.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 10:52, 20 August 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Ivar Rooth''' (2 November 1888 &ndash; 27 February 1972) was a Swedish lawyer and economist who served as the governor of the [[Swedish National Bank]] from 1929 to 1948 and the second managing director of the [[International Monetary Fund]] (IMF) from 1951 to 1956. He was also a member of the board of directors of the [[Bank of International Settlements]].

==Career==
Rooth was born on 2 November 1888, in Stockholm, Sweden. He was the son of Otto Rooth and Ellen Hertzman.<ref name="Lindblad (1924), p. 631">((cite book |editor1-last=Lindblad |editor1-first=Göran |year=1924 |title=Vem är det: svensk biografisk handbok. 1925 |trans-title=Who is it: Swedish biographical handbook. 1925 |location=Stockholm |publisher=P. A. Norstedt & Söners |language=Swedish |id=((LIBRIS|6gnl7s754g5f6x82)) |url=https://runeberg.org/vemardet/1925/0637.html |page=631))</ref> He graduated from [[Uppsala University]] with a [[Candidate of Law]] degree in 1911.<ref name="Lindblad (1924), p. 631"/>

In Rooth's early career, he was Solicitor for the Handelsbank (Commercial Bank) of Stockholm (1914), head of Bank's Commercial Credit Department (1915), Assistant Manager and Solicitor of Stockholm Mortgage Bank, Governor of the Central Bank of Sweden ([[Sveriges Riksbank]], 1929–1948), and Director of the [[Bank of International Settlements]] (1931–1933 and 1937–1949). In 1951, he headed a mission to Iraq for the [[International Bank for Reconstruction and Development]]. On 10 April 1951, he was appointed Managing Director and Chairman of the Executive Board of the IMF and assumed his duties on 3 August 1951.

Rooth, in his first address to member countries as Managing Director of the IMF on 11 September 1951, stated that the Fund "sought removal or modification of exchange restrictions and other discriminatory practices" aimed at a freer flow of [[international trade]] and payments. Subsequently, general policy on use of IMF's resources was set forth. This initiated the IMF's policy of drawings in tranches. In 1952, in accordance with the Articles of Agreement, 5 years after the IMF began financial operations, annual consultations with members maintaining exchange restrictions under Article XIV were initiated. The IMF introduced a general framework for Stand-by Arrangements, and the criteria to be applied were standardized. Rooth's term as Managing Director of the IMF ended on 27 April 1956, but he accepted a request by the Executive Board to serve a further period ending on 3 October 1956.

Rooth was head of the Investment Committee of the United Nations Pension Fund from 1947 to 1961, and he was also head of the Currency Board in [[Kuwait]] from 1960 to 1962. After 1962 he stepped down and lived at [[Lidingö]], Sweden, and occasionally wrote and gave lectures on economic affairs.

==Personal life==
In 1914, he married Ingrid Lundgren (born 1889), the daughter of Bengt Lundgren and Eva Wennerström.<ref name="Lindblad (1924), p. 631"/> In 1931, he married Ingrid Söderlindh (born 1899), the daughter of Gunnar Söderlindh and Gertrud Lindroth.<ref name="Vem är det (1932), p. 712">((cite book |title=Vem är det: svensk biografisk handbok. 1933 |trans-title=Who is it: Swedish biographical handbook. 1933 |year=1932 |location=Stockholm |publisher=Norstedt |language=Swedish |url=https://runeberg.org/vemardet/1933/0712.html |page=712))</ref>

He had four children, including physician [[Gösta Rooth]].

Rooth died in Sweden on 27 February 1972.<ref>((Citation |title=Ivar Rooth Dies; Swedish Banker; Led World Monetary Fund From 1951 to 1956 |newspaper=[[New York Times]] |date=February 29, 1972 |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1972/02/29/archives/ivarrooth-dies-swedish-banker-led-world-monetary-fund-from-1951-o.html )).</ref>
