Abstract

This study gives a simple derivation of the efficiency bound for conditional moment restriction models. The Fisher information is obtained by deriving a least favorable submodel in an explicit form. The proposed method also suggests an asymptotically efficient estimator, which can be viewed as an empirical likelihood estimator for conditional moment restriction models.
