In the first half of the paper we study spurious regressions in panel data when the cross-section and time-series dimensions are comparable. Asymptotic properties of the least-squares dummy variable (LSDV) estimator and other conventional statistics are examined. We show that the LSDV...

To which extent do equity and housing hedge against inflation? Despite an extensive literature, there is only little consensus. This paper presents new evidence from the Jordà-Schularick-Taylor Macrohistory Database, which covers return rates on housing and equity as well as consumer price...

We examine the existence of Real Interest Rate Parity (RIRP) for a number of Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries. Using time series techniques, we manage to identify cointegrating relationships. For a subset of countries our findings suggest the existence of a...

We propose a bounds testing procedure (BTP) with a battery of tests for the existence of a non-degenerate co-integrating relationship in levels, for long panels. It is a natural extension to panel data of the respective approach in time series as described by Pesaran, Shin and Smith (2001) and...

This paper provides a review of the literature on unit roots and cointegration in panels where the time dimension (T), and the cross section dimension (N) are relatively large. It distinguishes between the first generation tests developed on the assumption of the cross section independence, and...

This paper provides new evidence on the effect of debt on economic growth through two alternative methodological approaches. On the one hand, by using a panel error correction model with a sample of 130 countries between 1980 and 2020, we found evidence of the existence of a range of debt-to-GDP...

The literature on panel models has made considerable progress in the last few decades, integrating non-stationary data both in the time and spatial domain. However, there remains a gap in the literature that simultaneously models non-stationarity and cointegration in both the time and spatial...

We consider a class of panel tests covering tests for the null hypothesis of no cointegration as well as cointegration. All tests under investigation rely on single-equations estimated by ordinary least squares, and they may be residual-based or not. We focus on test statistics computed from...

In this paper, we study the asymptotic distributions for least-squares (OLS), fully modified (FM), and dynamic OLS (DOLS) estimators in cointegrated regression models in panel data. We show that the OLS, FM, and DOLS estimators are all asymptotically normally distributed. However, the asymptotic...
