This paper investigates a simple dynamic linear panel regression model with both fixed effects and time effects. Using "large n and large T " asymptotics, we approximate the distribution of the fixed effect estimator of the autoregressive parameter in the dynamic linear panel model and derive...

This paper studies nonstationarities in panels of exchange rates and interest rates. For this, we survey developments in the analysis of nonstationary panels with cross-sectional dependence modeled as a factor model. We focus on panel unit root tests and on inference on the nonstationary...

The asymptotic local power of various panel unit root tests are investigated. The (Gaussian) power envelope is obtained under homogeneous and heterogeneous alternatives. The envelope is compared with the asymptotic power functions for the pooled t- test, the Ploberger-Phillips (2002) test, and a...

This paper derives limit distributions of empirical likelihood estimators for models in which inequality moment conditions provide overidentifying information. We show that the use of this information leads to a reduction of the asymptotic mean-squared estimation error and propose asymptotically...

This paper studies a semiparametric nonstationary binary choice model. Imposing a spherical normalization constraint on the parameter for identification purpose, we find that the MSE and SMSE are at least sqrt(n)-consistent. Comparing this rate to the parametric MLE’s convergence rate, we show...
