In this paper, we analytically investigate three efficient estimators for cointegrating regression models: Phillips and Hansen's [Phillips, P.C.B., Hansen, B.E., 1990. Statistical inference in instrumental variables regression with I(1) processes. Review of Economic Studies 57, 99-125] fully...

In this article, we examine the usefulness of the bias-corrected first-difference (BCFD) estimator by Chowdhury (1987) from two angles: inference and testing. First, we compare the BCFD estimator with Bun and Carree's (2005) estimator and the GMM estimator in terms of accuracy of inference....

This paper extends the transformed maximum likelihood approach for estimation of dynamic panel data models by Hsiao, Pesaran, and Tahmiscioglu (2002) to the case where the errors are crosssectionally heteroskedastic. This extension is not trivial due to the incidental parameters problem that...

In this note, we derive the finite sample bias of the modified ordinary least squares (MOLS) estimator, which was suggested by Wansbeek and Knaap (1999) and reconsidered by Hayakawa (2006a,b). From the formula for the finite sample bias, we find that the bias of the MOLS estimator becomes small...

In this paper, we show that the bias-corrected first-difference (BCFD) estimator suggested by Chowdhury (1987) can be applied to the case where the error terms are cross-sectionally dependent and heteroscedastic. By deriving the finite sample bias of the BCFD estimator, we find that the BCFD...

This paper compares the performances of the generalized method of moments (GMM) estimator of dynamic panel data model wherein unobserved individual effects are removed by the forward orthogonal deviation or the first difference. The simulation results show that the GMM estimator of the model...

In this paper, we investigate the effect of mean-nonstationarity on the first-difference generalized method of moments (FD-GMM) estimator in dynamic panel data models. We find that when data is mean-nonstationary and the variance of individual effects is significantly larger than that of...
