Profile GMM estimation of panel data models with interactive fixed effects
含交互固定效应的面板模型的剖面 GMM 估计
This paper studies panel data models with interactive fixed effects where the regressors are allowed to be correlated with the idiosyncratic error terms. We propose a two-step profile GMM estimation procedure to estimate the parameters of interest. In the first step we obtain a preliminary consistent estimate of the slope coefficient via a nuclear-norm-regularization (NNR) based profile GMM procedure. In the second step, via an iterative procedure, we conduct post-NNR…
