Abstract

This paper proposes estimating linear dynamic panels by explicitly exploiting the endogeneity of lagged dependent variables and expressing the crossmoments between the endogenous lagged dependent variables and disturbances in terms of model parameters. These moments, when recentered, form the basis for model estimation. The resulting estimator’s asymptotic properties are derived under different asymptotic regimes (large number of cross-sectional units or long time spans), stable conditions (with or without a unit root), and error characteristics (homoskedasticity or heteroskedasticity of different forms). Monte Carlo experiments show that it has very good finite-sample performance.
