COLLUSION A usually secret agreement among competing firms in an industry (primarily oligopoly) to dominate the market, control the market price, and otherwise act like a monopoly. The reason for the secrecy is that such behavior is illegal in the United States under antitrust laws. Collusion can take one of two forms.

Implicit collusion occurs when two or more firms in the same industry control the market through informal, interdependent actions.
