We consider a class of panel tests of the null hypothesis of no cointegration and cointegration. All tests under investigation rely on single-equations estimated by least squares, and they may be residual-based or not. We focus on test statistics computed from regressions with intercept only...

We consider a class of panel tests covering tests for the null hypothesis of no cointegration as well as cointegration. All tests under investigation rely on single-equations estimated by ordinary least squares, and they may be residual-based or not. We focus on test statistics computed from...

The inverse normal method, which is used to combine P-values from a series of statistical tests, requires independence of single test statistics in order to obtain asymptotic normality of the joint test statistic. The paper discusses the modification by Hartung (1999, Biometrical Journal, Vol....

In this paper, nominal interest rate linkages between 11 OECD countries are examined. As required for the uncovered interest parity (UIP) to hold empirically, the differentials between the interest rates of Germany (or the US) and the other countries should be stationary. Monthly short-term,...
