Usage Note
Monopolístico is a formal adjective used in economics and law to describe practices or structures that create or sustain a monopoly — comportamiento monopolístico ('monopolistic behaviour'). It is rarely used outside professional contexts; the simpler construction de monopolio ('of monopoly') is an everyday alternative. The related noun el monopolio is far more frequent.
