@ChrisMayLA6 What sectors are oligopolies and is it possible to invest in the companies in them?
If I would compare with sweden, banks are a oligopoly, give generous dividends, and grow at about the same rate as the market as a whole. One year on bank does a bit better by lowering interest rates, and the next year it was another one that lowered them most.
Very comfortable as investments unless you need spectacular gains.

I'd say pretty much every major market segment in the UK is likely an oligopoly; if that's your investment strategy you'd be spoilt for choice - do you have a preferred sector?
@ChrisMayLA6 Depends on where it fits in my portfolio. For boring dividend payers I like safe and secure such as food, energy, real estate, banks etc.
Anything good there you think?
