This paper proposes a new panel model of cross-sectional dependence. The model has a number of potential structural interpretations that relate to economic phenomena such as herding in financial markets. On an econometric level it provides a flexible approach to the modelling of interactions...

Interest in the interface of nonstationarity and nonlinearity has been increasing in the econometric literature. This paper provides a formal method of testing for nonstationary long memory against the alternative of particular forms of nonlinerarity. The nonlinear models we consider are ESTAR...

This paper investigates GLS detrending procedures for unit root tests against nonlinear stationary alternative hypotheses where deterministic components are assumed present in the series under investigation. It is found that the proposed procedures have considerable power gains in a majority of...
