Applying the new panel unit root test developed in this paper, we can overcome the pitfalls of old-fashioned panel unit root tests and makes it possible for researchers testing individual series for a unit root while taking contemporaneous cross-sectional dependence into account. The proposed...

Using several different unit root/stationarity tests on single time series Konya (2000) found the logarithm of real GDP of most OECD countries behaving as a random walk during the last four decades. This outcome, however, might be due to the generally low power of these tests. The aim of this...

Most of the existing literature on panel data cointegration assumes cross-sectional independence, an assumption that is … difficult to satisfy. This paper studies panel cointegration under cross-sectional dependence, which is characterized by a …

Recent advances in testing for the validity of Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) focus on the time series properties of real exchange rates in panel frameworks. One weakness of such tests, however, is that they fail to inform the researcher as to which cross-section units are stationary. As a...

This paper contributes to the GMM literature by introducing the idea of self-instrumenting target variables instead of searching for instruments that are uncorrelated with the errors, in cases where the correlation between the target variables and the errors can be derived. The advantage of the...

A dynamic panel data model is considered that contains possibly stochastic individual components and a common fractional stochastic time trend. We propose four different ways of coping with the individual effects so as to estimate the fractional parameter. Like models with autoregressive...
