On the Estimation and Inference of a Panel Cointegration Model with Cross-Sectional Dependence

No 75, Center for Policy Research Working Papers from Center for Policy Research, Maxwell School, Syracuse University

Abstract: Most of the existing literature on panel data cointegration assumes cross-sectional independence, an assumption that is difficult to satisfy. This paper studies panel cointegration under cross-sectional dependence, which is characterized by a factor structure. We derive the limiting distribution of a fully modified estimator for the panel cointegrating coefficients. We also propose a continuous-updated fully modified (CUP-FM) estimator). Monte Carlo results show that the CUP-FM estimator has better small sample properties than the two-step FM (2S-FM) and OLS estimators.
