Business Extortion

Business Extortion is a form of organized economic coercion in which a protection racket systematically extorts payments from enterprises under the threat of imposing financial or physical harm, distinguished from other forms of extortion by its targeted exploitation of legitimate business operations and its implicit offer of protection services in exchange for ongoing tribute.
