Abstract

The focus of this paper is the nonparametric estimation of the marginal effects (i.e. first partial derivatives) of an instrumental regression function ϕ defined by conditional moment restrictions that stem from a structural econometric model $ E[Y-\varphi (Z)\,|\,W]=0 $ E[Y−ϕ(Z)|W]=0, and involve endogenous variables Y and Z and instruments W. The derivative function $ \varphi ' $ ϕ′ is the solution of an ill-posed inverse problem and we propose an estimation procedure based on Landweber–Fridman regularisation. We provide theoretical underpinnings of the proposed approach, examine finite-sample performance, and consider an illustrative application.
