This paper estimates the impulse responses of output to financial crises using a local projections panel estimator that accounts for cross-country heterogeneity and cross-sectional dependence. Using a long span of data (1870–2016) for a group of 17 advanced economies we show that once we control for unobserved common factors and parameter heterogeneity in the panel, there is strong evidence of economic recovery within the first 10 years after a financial crisis.
