In this paper, new estimating methods proposed for dynamic and static probit models with panel data. Simulation studies show that the proposed estimators work relatively well.

Most papers on high-dimensional statistics are based on the assumption that none of the regressors are correlated with the regression error, namely, they are exogenous. Yet, endogeneity arises easily in high-dimensional regression due to a large pool of regressors and this causes the...

Estimating and assessing the risk of a large portfolio is an important topic in financial econometrics and risk management. The risk is often estimated by a substitution of a good estimator of the volatility matrix. However, the accuracy of such a risk estimator for large portfolios is largely...

This paper deals with estimation of high-dimensional covariance with a conditional sparsity structure, which is the composition of a low-rank matrix plus a sparse matrix. By assuming sparse error covariance matrix in a multi-factor model, we allow the presence of the cross-sectional correlation...
