This online appendix is structured as follows. Section S.1 contains some auxiliary lemmas and proofs for Section 4. Section S.2 develop supporting theoretical results for Section 5. Section S.3 reports additional simulation results. Some tables appear at the end

This paper develops cluster robust inference methods for panel quantile regression (QR) models with individual fixed effects, allowing temporal correlation within each individual. The conventional QR standard errors can seriously underestimate the uncertainty of estimators and therefore...

The value of lawyers to their clients is notoriously difficult to estimate due to endogeneity. We utilize modifications to the collateral source (CS) rule that require reducing trial awards by the amount of payments from first-party insurance as an instrument for hiring a lawyer. The problem...

This article differentiates itself from the large volume of existing literature on business groups, such as Korean chaebols, in several aspects. First, it uses productive efficiency rather than financial efficiency as a performance measure. Second, it defines chaebols in three alternative ways...

The existence of the business groups has been associated with market failure in emerging economies, and thus their performance has been argued and found to have declined with development of market institutions surrounding them. This paper takes up this issue of long-term performance of the...

This paper considers inference in log-linearized dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) models with weakly (including un-) identified parameters. The framework allows for analysis using only part of the spectrum, say at the business cycle frequencies. First, we characterize weak...
