Abstract

Panel data, pooling cross-sectional and time series data, is increasingly used in estimating financial models. This chapter presents estimators for pooled, fixed effects (FE), and random effects (RE) linear panel data models, assumptions on which they are based, particularly contemporaneous and strict exogeneity assumptions on the explanatory variables, and model specification testing (DWH and Wooldridge tests). Implications of estimator and specification choice on parameter consistency and standard error efficiency are developed. The relationship between the approaches, choice of approach, and their advantages and disadvantages are discussed. Examples illustrate application of the estimators and tests, applying the concepts and testing specifications to illustrate their use and interpretation.
