Schwarz information criteria - Eviews 13

Hi

I'm not sure about this but asking anyway. For information criterion used in model selection, the "Schwarz information criteria" appears to have changed from "BIC" to "SIC" in Eviews 13. Is it correct? In that case, the manual may need to be updated in various places.

Regards Johan

Could you provide the context?

Hi Johan,

Thanks for letting us know. The syntax has been expanded. Both ic=sic and ic=bic are now supported in 13. You'll see the change with the next patch following today's patch release.

Kind regards,
Mirza
