Genericity of the completeness condition with constrained instruments

Author

Listed:
  • Loh, Isaac

Abstract

It is shown that, under regularity conditions commonly imposed for estimation, completeness becomes a topologically generic property of a widely used triangular nonparametric instrumental variables model. Hence, completeness can be a reasonable assumption with constrained (e.g. bounded support) instrumental variables.
