Summary
This chapter explores innominate contracts in general under Swiss law, namely those contracts which are not subject to any specific regulation by statute. This chapter discusses the delimitation of innominate contracts with respect to other contracts, namely mixed contracts, nominate contracts with atypical elements and compound contracts as well as the different types of innominate contracts found under Swiss law including mixed contracts and sui generis contracts. This chapter further analyses how the statutory law is applied to such contracts.
