Positive Covenant
A bond covenant that requires the issuer to take certain actions. For example, a positive covenant may require an issuer to maintain enough liquid assets to cover the principal of the bond. More commonly, a positive covenant requires the issuer to have a certain amount of insurance or submit to periodic audits. It contrasts with a negative covenant, which prevents the issuer from taking the enumerated actions. It is also called an affirmative covenant (of a bond).
