We study inference for threshold regression in the context of a large panel factor model with common stochastic trends. We develop a Least Squares estimator for the threshold level, deriving almost sure rates of convergence and proposing a novel, testing based, way of constructing confidence...

This paper studies large dimensional factor models with threshold-type regime shifts in the loadings. We estimate the threshold by concentrated least squares, and factors and loadings by principal components. The estimator for the threshold is super consistent, with convergence rate that depends...

This paper proposes an extension to threshold-type switching models that lets the threshold variable be a linear combination of exogenous variables with unknown coefficients. An algorithm to estimate the model's parameters by least squares is provided and the validity of the methodological...
