We extend the Berry, Levinsohn and Pakes (BLP, 1995) random coefficients discrete choice demand model, which underlies much recent empirical work in IO. We add interactive fixed effects in the form of a factor structure on the unobserved product characteristics. The interactive fixed effects can...

Inference on common parameters in panel data models with individual-specific fixed effects is a classic example of Neyman and Scott's (Econometrica 36:1-32, 1948) incidental parameter problem (IPP). One solution to this IPP is functional differencing (Bonhomme in Econometrica 80(4):1337-1385,...
