A debt covenant lays out the conditions the borrower must fulfill, or the actions they must avoid, to remain in good standing with the lender. Covenants run the gamut from the basics of business operations, such as maintaining the business and running it in a legal manner, to more specific and complex requirements.
Covenants are agreements between multiple parties that create a legally binding agreement on how each party is to perform. Covenants can either promote activity to occur (positive covenant) or disallow an event or condition (negative covenant).
The three types of covenants are positive, negative, and financial. Each contains a unique set of requirements and stipulations. Positive and negative covenants are not interchangeable as good or bad but rather refer to what borrowers can or cannot do.
