Loan documentation. A clause in a loan agreement that commits the borrower to operate within predefined financial constraints.

For example, an interest cover covenant might state that interest cover will be no less than 3 times; the borrower promises that the ratio will always exceed the set figure.

Breach of a financial covenant would normally constitute an event of default.
