1 Chapter 11 Dynamic Panels This chapter covers the econometrics methods to estimate dynamic panel data models, and presents examples in Stata to illustrate the use of these procedures. The topics in this chapter are discussed in detail in Arellano and Bond (1991), Arellano and Bover (1995), and Blundell and Bond (1998) Introduction Panel data is widely used to estimate dynamic models. The advantage over crosssectional data is obvious: we cannot estimate dynamic models with a single observation in time. The advantage over time-series data include the possibility that underlying dynamics may be obscured by aggregation biases, and the scope that panel data offers to investigate heterogeneity in adjustment dynamics between different types of cross-sectional units. The focus of this chapter is in the estimation of single equation, autoregressivedistributed lag models from panels with a large number of cross-section units, each observed for a small number of periods. The importance of these methods arise because they can be used in the absence of any strictly exogenous explanatory variables or instruments, and can be extended to models with predetermined or endogenous variables. Strictly exogenous rules out any feedback from current or past shocks to to current values of the variable, which is often not a reasonable restriction Autoregressive Model Let s first estimate the simple panel AR(1) model: 1 This chapter mostly follows Bond (2002). 119
2 Dynamic Panels y it = αy i,t 1 +(ν i + v it ), α<1 (11.1) for i=1,2,..., and t = 2,3,...,T. where y it is an observation on some series for individual i in period t, y i, j 1 is the observation for the same individual lagged once ν i is the unobserved individualspecific time-invariant effect which allows for heterogeneity in the means of the y it series across individuals, and v it are independent across individuals. There are individuals across T periods, and the asymptotic properties are considered as becomes large with T fixed. Simply applying OLS to Equation 11.1 yields inconsistent estimates because y i,t 1 is positively correlated with the error term (ν i + v it ) due to the presence of individual effects. Moreover, ickell (1981) shows that the Fixed Effects estimator eliminates ν i ; however, this estimator is still inconsistent for a fixed T. Maximum likelihood estimators are also inconsistent when the initial condition process is misspecified (see Hsiao, 1986). Arellano and Bond (1991) propose first-differencing Equation 11.1 to eliminate the individual effects: y it = α y i,t 1 + v it (11.2) where y i,t 1 = y it y i,t 1. Then the idea is to estimate Equation 11.2 lags of y it as instruments. When t = 3, only y i1 is available as an instrument, but when t = 4 both y i1 and y i2 can be used as instruments. As we have more time periods there will be more instruments available. In general, the vector(y i1,y i2,...,y i,t 2 ) can be used as instrument when t = T. Because the model is over-identified (more instruments than instrumented variables), Arellano and Bond propose estimating Equation 11.2 via Generalized Method of Moments (GMM). The matrix of instruments has the form: y i y i1 y i2 0 0 Z i = , y i1 y i,t 2 where the rows correspond to the first-differenced equations for periods t= 3,4,...,T for individual i, and exploit the moment conditions E[Z i v i ]=0 for i=1,2,, (11.3) where v i = ( v i3, v i4,..., v it ). The asymptotically efficient GMM estimator based on this set of moment conditions minimizes the criterion ( ) ( ) 1 J = v 1 iz i W Z i v i (11.4) using the weight matrix i=1 i=1
3 11.3 Multivariate Dynamic Models 121 W = [ 1 i=1 (Z i v i vi Zi ) ] 1 (11.5) where the v i are consistent estimates of the first-differenced residuals obtained from a preliminary consistent estimator. Hence, this is known as the two-step GMM estimator. otice that when T > 3 the model is overidentified and the validity of the assumptions used to obtain the moments in Equation 11.3 can be tested using the standard Sargan test of overidentifying restrictions. In particular, J in Equation 11.4 has an asymptotic χ 2 distribution under the null hypothesis that these moment conditions are valid. In this context the key identifying assumption that there is no serial correlation in the v it disturbances can be tested by testing for no second-order serial correlation in the first-difference residuals Multivariate Dynamic Models Difference GMM Estimator The GMM estimators for the autoregressive models just described can be extended to estimate autoregressive-distributes lag models of the form y it = αy i,t 1 + βx it +(ν i + v it ), α<1 (11.6) for i=1,2,..., and t = 2,3,...,T. where x it can be a vector of current and lagged values of additional explanatory variables. An attractive feature of this approach is that it does not require models for the x it series to be specified in order to estimate the parameters(α,β). Taking first differences of Equation 11.6 we obtain: y it = α y i,t 1 + β x it + v it (11.7) Different moment conditions following Equation 11.3 will be available depending on what is assumed about the correlation between x it and the error term. Maintaining that the v it disturbances are serially uncorrelated, the x it series may be: 1. Endogenous. Then x it is correlated with v it and earlier shocks, but x it is uncorrelated with v i,t+1 and subsequent shocks. In this case x it is treated symmetrically with the variable y it. This means that lagged values of x i,t 2, x i,t 3 and longer lags will be instruments (in Z i ) for the first-differenced equations (Equation 11.7). 2. Predetermined. Then x it and v it are uncorrelated, but x it may still be correlated with v i,t 1 and earlier shocks. In this case x i,t 1 becomes available as additional instrument.
4 Dynamic Panels 3. Strictly exogenous. Then x it is uncorrelated with all past, present and future realizations of v is. In this case the complete time series x i =(x i1,x i2,,x it ) will be valid instrumental variables for the first-differenced equations. GMM based on the moment conditions in Equation 11.3 is known as the Arellano and Bond difference GMM dynamic panel estimator System GMM Estimator When the series are persistent (high value of α), Blundell and Bond (1998) showed that the instruments in Z i are weak and may fail to identify the parameters of interest. Blundell and Bond proposed combining the equation in first differences with the equation in levels to form a system estimator. The additional assumption in this system estimator is that the first-differences x it are uncorrelated with the unobserved individual effects ν i. In this case lagged values of y i,t 1 and x it can be used as instrumental variables in the levels equation. Hence, the following additional moment conditions are also available and E[ y i,t 1 (ν i + v it )] for i=1,2,..., t = 3,4,...,T, (11.8) E[ x it (ν i + v it )] for i=1,2,..., t = 2,4,...,T. (11.9) That is, the system estimator combines the first difference equation (Equation 11.7) and the levels equation (Equation11.6) using the moment conditions in Equations 11.3, 11.8, and The choice between the system and the difference estimators depends on the validity of the assumptions and the time-series properties of the series. The is better if the series are persistent, but requires more assuptions Estimation in Stata The simplest models can be estimated using the commands xtabond and xtdpdsys. However, more interesting models are available with xtdpd and the options inst, lags, maxldep and maxlags and when one is willing to explore the different assumptions about the correlation between x it and v it.
5 11.4 Estimation in Stata The Difference GMM Estimator Consider the following example from the Stata manual. The following estimation controls for the endogeneity of lagged dependend variable and assumes strictly exogenous regressors. use xtabond n l(0/1).w l(0/2).(k ys) yr1980-yr1984 year, lags(2) noconstant vce(robust) Arellano-Bond dynamic panel-data estimation umber of obs = 611 Group variable: id umber of groups = 140 Time variable: year Obs per group: min = 4 avg = max = 6 umber of instruments = 41 Wald chi2(16) = Prob > chi2 = One-step results (Std.

Basically the estimation is being done using the first difference equation and the strictly exogenous variables are instruments for themselves. The GMM-type instruments follow from the Z i matrix detailed after Equation The vce(robust) options estimates the Windmeijer (2005) robust finite-sample correction of the variance-covariance matrix. To test for the validity of the moment conditions we use the Sargan test for overidentifying restrictions xtabond n l(0/1).w l(0/2).(k ys) yr1980-yr1984 year, lags(2) noconstant
6 Dynamic Panels (output omitted) estat sargan Sargan test of overidentifying restrictions H0: overidentifying restrictions are valid chi2(25) = Prob > chi2 = Only for a homoskedastic error term does the Sargan test have an asymptotic chisquared distribution. Because its asymptotic distribution is not known under the assumptions of the vce(robust) model, xtabond does not compute it when vce(robust) is specified. Based on the results we reject the null that the overidentifying restrictions are valid. Hence, the moment conditions are not valid. To test for second-order serial correlation in the first-difference residuals we use xtabond n l(0/1).w l(0/2).(k ys) yr1980-yr1984 year, lags(2) noconstant vce(robust) (output omitted) estat abond Arellano-Bond test for zero autocorrelation in first-differenced errors Order z Prob > z H0: no autocorrelation The large p-value for the second order serial correlation indicates that there is no first-order serial correlation in the residuals of equation in levels. Hence, there is no evidence of misspecification The System GMM Estimator For the system estimator we have the command xtdpdsys n l(0/1).w l(0/2).(k ys) yr1980-yr1984 year, lags(2) noconstant vce(robust) System dynamic panel-data estimation umber of obs = 751 Group variable: id umber of groups = 140 Time variable: year Obs per group: min = 5 avg = max = 7 umber of instruments = 48 Wald chi2(16) = Prob > chi2 = One-step results Robust n Coef.

In the Sargan test for the over-identifying restrictions we have xtdpdsys n l(0/1).w l(0/2).(k ys) yr1980-yr1984 year, lags(2) noconstant (output omitted) estat sargan Sargan test of overidentifying restrictions H0: overidentifying restrictions are valid chi2(32) = Prob > chi2 = Again, the moment conditions are not valid. The second-order serial correlation test yields xtdpdsys n l(0/1).w l(0/2).(k ys) yr1980-yr1984 year, lags(2) noconstant vce(robust) estat abond artests not computed for one-step system estimator with vce(gmm) Arellano-Bond test for zero autocorrelation in first-differenced errors Order z Prob > z H0: no autocorrelation There is no evidence of first-order serial correlation in the levels equation, which is the same as second-order serial correlation in the first-difference equation. For more on these estimations consult the original papers and the Stata manual for additional options.
