We examine the asymptotic and finite-sample properties of the two-pass (TP) cross-sectional regressions estimators when factors and asset returns are conditionally heteroskedastic and/or autocorrelated. Using a minimum distance approach, we derive the heteroskedasticity- and/or...

This paper analyzes the finite-sample performance of the two-pass (TP) estimators of factor risk prices when betas have high cross-sectional correlations (Multicollinear) and when betas have small cross-sectional variations (Invariant). Our Monte Carlo simulations, calibrated using actual...

This paper examines the asymptotic and finite sample properties of the two-pass cross-sectional regressions estimators, when the factors and the asset returns are conditionally heteroskedastic and/or autocorrelated. Using a minimum distance approach, we derive heteroskedasticity- and/or...
