The "V-Factor": distribution, timing and correlates of the great Indian growth turnaround

Ghate, Chetan; Wright, Stephen - 2009

Following Bai (2004) and Bai and Ng (2004) we estimate a common factor representation of a panel of output series for India, disaggregated by 15 states and 14 broad industry groups. We find that a single common V-Factor accounts for a large part of the significant shift in the cross-sectional...
