Copper cartels

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Since 1870, there have been several formal attempts to restrict the copper output and raise in this form its price.

This is a list of copper cartels in the 20th century:

• Copper Export Association, CEA, 1918-1923
• Copper Exporters, Inc., CEI, 1926-1932
• International Copper Cartel , ICC, 1935-1939 (Also called World Copper Agreement)
• Intergovernmental Council of Copper Exporting Countries, CIPEC, 1967-1988
