Abstract

This paper studies dynamic panel models with a factor error structure that is correlated with the regressors. Both short panels (small T) and long panels (large T) are considered. A dynamic panel forms a simultaneous-equation system, and under the factor error structure, there exist constraints between the mean and the covariance matrix. We explore the constraints through a quasi-FIML (full information maximum likelihood) approach. The quasi-FIML approach does not estimate individual effects, even if they are fixed constants, thus circumventing the incidental parameters problem in the cross-sectional dimension.
