Duopoli

A Duopoly Example
  • A Duopoly is an oligopoly with only two members. It is the simplest type of oligopoly. 

Competition, Monopolies and Cartels : 
  The Duopoly may agree on a monopoly outcome :
a. Collusiaon
    An agreement among firms in a market about quantities to produce or price to charge.
b. Cartel
    A group of firms acting in unison.

Although oligopolists would like to form cartels and earn monopoly profit, often that is not possible. Antitrust law prohibit explicit agreements among oligopolists as a matter of public policy.
