  1. contract of hazard

    A contract of hazard is a type of legal agreement in which the obligations of the parties involved are dependent on an uncertain event. The outcome of the contract, benefits or losses, depends on the occurrence or non-occurrence of the event, which is typically beyond the control of either party. Such contracts often arise in situations like insurance policies, gambling or speculative investments. In these contracts, the risk is distributed unevenly between the parties involved. The party assuming the greater risk generally stands to gain the more substantial benefit if the specified event occurs.
