| | cartel - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about cartel |
 | | Cartels can be formed to fix prices by maintaining the price of a product at an artificially low level, to deter new competitors, or to restrict production of a commodity in order to maintain prices at an artificially high level to boost profits. | | | The members of a cartel may also agree on which member should win a contract, known as bid rigging, or which customers they will supply. | | | The Sherman Antitrust Act 1890 prohibited cartels, but legislation passed during the Great Depression permitted industries to enact ‘codes of fair competition’. |

| | Cartel members often use the term "over budget" and "under budget" in comparing sales and allocations. | | | Remember that these cartel members were not discussing general price levels or a range of prices; rather the lysine cartel fixed the price to a specific penny per pound in the United States or, in the case of the Canadian market, to the penny per kilogram. | | | Documents prepared by members of the cartel for various meetings reveal that the cartel, over the course of a full decade, was nearly always successful in coordinating and implementing the agreed-upon or "budgeted" price increases for the many products controlled by the cartel and in adhering to the precisely allocated market shares around the world. |

| | Cartel: A Glossary of Political Economy Terms - Dr. Paul M. Johnson |
| | Even in those countries that outlaw private cartels, however, it has often been possible for politically powerful but economically endangered high cost producer firms in a few industries to secure the "cartelization" of their industry in a back-door fashion. | | | It also must find some way to exclude non-cartel firms from selling to customers within the cartel's market area(s) -- such as by getting their national or local governments to grant cartel members a legal monopoly or to enact administrative or tax barriers to sales of the product by outsiders. | | | This they normally accomplish by agreeing on a relatively high common asking price for their product that none of the member firms will be permitted underbid, but sometimes the member firms may simply agree to divide the market geographically and grant each other local monopolies without necessarily enforcing a uniform price structure. |

| | cartel on Encyclopedia.com |
| | CARTEL [cartel], national or international organization of manufacturers or traders allied by agreement to fix prices, limit supply, divide markets, or to fix quotas for sales, manufacture, or division of profits among the member firms. | | | Supporters of cartels claim that they protect the weaker participating firms, do away to an extent with limitations on trade resulting from high tariffs, distribute risks and profits equitably, stabilize markets, reduce costs, and hence protect consumers. | | | Because they imply the agreement and supervision of several governments, cartels in international trade are usually felt to be less harmful than those that tend to create monopolies in the home market for participants. |

| | The assets of a total of 958 Colombian drug cartel businesses and individuals are now blocked under the 1995 Executive Order; and those businesses and individuals are prohibited from American financial and business dealings. | | | Also named today are numerous financial fronts in Colombia, such as Coopdisan, Drofarco, and Incommerce, which are created by the Cali cartel using trusted corporate officers to provide bank account services to its business fronts. | | | Because ZARATAN CORPORATION is owned or controlled by an individual who acts for or on behalf of Gilberto and Miguel Rodriguez Orejuela, it serves as a corporate front for their narcotics trafficking and money laundering activities, and therefore is listed for designation as an SDNT. |
