This paper considers the problem of testing cross-sectional correlation in large panel data models with serially …-correlated errors. It finds that existing tests for cross-sectional correlation encounter size distortions with serial correlation in … account for serial correlation of an unknown form in the error term. We derive the limiting distribution of this test as (N …

The sustained current account deficit in any country has an important implication for policy. If it continues, then it suggests that the regime ought to have no motivation to avoid or to diminish its international debt. In this paper, we test empirically the relationship among current account...

Pseudo-panels allow estimation of panel models when only repeated cross-sections are available. This involves grouping … constrained by a lack of consensus on how the pseudo-panels should be formed, particularly to address potential sampling error … both metrics are above certain recommended values, the biases from aggregation and sampling error are minimised, meaning …

Bias correction can often improve the finite sample performance of estimators. We show that the choice of bias correction method has no effect on the higherorder variance of semiparametrically efficient parametric estimators, so long as the estimate of the bias is asymptotically linear. It is...
