A consortium, at least in most instances. The nice thing about consortia is that they run into the same issues as OPEC and other cartels -- the first to cheat has an advantage, as does the group that exercises the most influence within the cartel/consortium, and those two groups are never the same.
Queue coverups, intrigue and nasty consortium in-fighting!
