Find out about the various economic and financial implications of monopolies existing within any business sector. With this free online course on understanding monopolies, you will study market situations where one producer or a group of producers acting in concert controls the supply of goods or a service. Learn about how they can prevent the entry of new suppliers into a market, and exert influence by keeping prices high and restricting output, and how they tend to show little or no responsiveness to the needs of their customers.
