Abstract

The effectiveness of an orthogonal to backward mean transformation is investigated in the context of a non-stationary panel data model. It is shown that the corresponding estimator is as efficient as Transformed Maximum Likelihood when the autoregressive parameter is equal to unity. Furthermore, a recently introduced bias-corrected version is almost as efficient as the Pooled Least Squares estimator.
