A semi-empirical likelihood estimator is proposed for models where agents interact under asymmetric information. The methodology focuses on situations where some variables that were privately observed when choices were made become available to the econometrician afterwards. This variables are...

This paper analyzes the technical efficiency in the Mexican manufacturing sector in which determinants and changes of the efficiency since NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) are studied using the Panel Data Stochastic Frontier Analysis in its time-invariant and time-variant versions,...

Econometric models under complete information environment with game theoretic foundations are used in this work to analyze husband and wife labor force participation in Mexico. A mechanism of equilibrium's selection was designed in the context of multiple equilibria, in order to identify the...

There exists an ongoing debate about the economic impact induced by credit programs, mainly in developing countries. However, it has been less discussed the impact on welfare derived from the ownership of informal or formal credit. In this paper it is studied the impact of credit on the...

The coexistence of formal and informal suppliers of credit in a market generates the need of analyzing how those suppliers interact to satisfy the households’ demand of financial services. The objective of such analysis is the identification of an institutional design that allows the deepening...

We develop the trivariate probit model in which the sample incidentally truncates twice —i.e. in the first and in the second equations—, which is not solved in the literature. The model is analogue to the so called Bivariate Probit with Sample Selection (also referred as Bivariate Probit...

In Mexico, the electricity sector is one of the most important for the economy. It is a crucial input for the industry. The standard of living of the mexican population depends on the access to electricity. This relevance has generated, since former Mexican President Ernesto Zedillo’s proposal...
