One measure of the extent of competition in an industry is the concentration ratio. what level of concentration indicates that an industry is an oligopoly? Most economists believe that a four-firm concentration ratio of greater than 40 percent indicates that an industry is an oligopoly.

An oligopoly is a market where there is a small number of large sellers. They dominate their market but also have their own market structure where they are able to keep a lot of firms from having influence over them.
