SUPPORT / SAMPLES & SAS NOTES
Problem Note 44166: Frequency scaling is incorrectly used and causes incorrect frequency scale parameter estimates for sample user-defined UPOIS and UNEGBIN distributions
 |  |  |  |  |
In SAS® OpRisk VaR, if frequency scale adjustments are specified, their use results in incorrect frequency scale parameter estimates for sample user-defined UPOIS and UNEGBIN distributions. This is because the scale adjustment factor is incorrectly applied. The scale adjustment factor is used as a multiplier, but should be used as a divisor. Note that other distributions are not effected.

For software releases that are not yet generally available, the Fixed
Release is the software release in which the problem is planned to be
