This paper studies subsampling hypothesis tests for panel data that may be nonstationary, cross-sectionally correlated … the tests without estimating nuisance parameters. The tests include panel unit root and cointegration tests as special … shown that subsampling provides asymptotic distributions that are equivalent to the asymptotic distributions of the panel …
