English term or phrase: a virtual monopoly status

For a long time, until the end of the 1980s, the company enjoyed a virtual monopoly status which enabled it to develop strong relationships with all the major buyers of credit insurance products.

Ich bin mir nicht sicher wie ich virtual übersetzen könnte. Hat jemand eine Idee?

so gut wie totales Monopol

Explanation:
Nur als Variation. Ich glaube aber, auch "praktisch" und "quasi" wären besser mit Ergänzung, wie "vollständig", "unbegrenzt" o. ä.
