On Optimal Instrumental Variables Estimation of Stationary Time Series Models

Author

Listed:
  • West, Kenneth D

Abstract

In many time series models, an infinite number of moments can be used for estimation in a large sample. I supply a technically undemanding proof of a condition for optimal instrumental variables use of such moments in a parametric model. I also illustrate application of the condition in estimation of a linear model with a disturbance that is serially uncorrelated and conditionally heteroskedastic.
