In this paper we propose a general approach for estimating stochastic frontier models, suitable when using long panel …, cross sectionally correlated, non-stationary panel data models to estimate the frontier function. Given the long time span … of the panel, we investigate whether the variables, including the unobservable common factors, are non-stationary, and …
