This paper considers estimation methods and inference for linear dynamic panel data models with unit …-invariant variables in a dynamic version of the Hausman and Taylor (1981) model. We propose a two-stage estimation procedure to identify … errors are adjusted to take into account the first-stage estimation uncertainty. As potential first-stage estimators we …

We document the empirical fact that asset prices in the consumption-goods and investment-goods sector behave almost identically in the US economy. In order to derive the cyclical behavior of the equity returns in these two sectors, we onsider a standard two-sector real-business cycle model with...

Finally, we illustrate … the effect of the first stage estimation error and find that in order to have good power against local alternatives we … a multiplier bootstrap to conduct inference in a treatment model with nonparametrically estimated regressors.

We use changes in Brazil s tax on capital inflows from 2006 to 2011 to test for direct portfolio effects and externalities from capital controls on investor portfolios. The analysis is structured based on information from investor interviews. We find that an increase in Brazil s tax on foreign...

The 27th SUERF Colloquium in Munich in June 2008: New Trends in Asset Management: Exploring the Implications was already topical in the Summer of 2008. The subsequent dramatic events in the Autumn of 2008 made the presentations in Munich even more relevant to investors and bankers that want to...

The majority of general equilibrium models of international portfolio holdings differ substantially in their modeling procedures but typically feature a term that captures the relationship between real exchange rate changes and relative, i.e. home vs. foreign, equity market returns. However,...
