When cartels are created, usually in oligopolistic industries, few firms make agreements on things such as production and prices. This ensures that the few firms in the cartel have economic profit and will eventually drive off weaker firms. This usually results in monopolistic behaviors for the remaining firms and eventually the prices catch up to the consumer. Cartels tend to arise in markets where there are few firms and each firm has a signeficant share in the market.
