This paper studies the asymptotic efficiency of estimates in nonlinear panel data models with fixed effects when both the cross-sectional sample size and the length of time series tend to infinity. The efficiency bounds for regular estimators are derived using the infinite-dimensional...

This paper studies the asymptotic efficiency in factor models with serially correlated errors and dynamic panel data models with interactive effects. We derive the efficiency bound for the estimation of factors, factor loadings and common parameters that describe the dynamic structure. We use...
