A new stationarity test for heterogeneous panel data with large cross-sectional dimension is developed and used to examine a panel with growth rates of unit labor cost in the USA. The test allows for strong cross-unit dependence in the form of unbounded long-run correlation matrices, for which a...

We use meta-analytic procedures to develop new tests for panel cointegration, combining p-values from time-series cointegration tests on the units of the panel. The tests are robust to heterogeneity and cross-sectional dependence between the panel units. To achieve the latter, we employ a sieve...
