Fully Modified IV, GIVE and GMM Estimation with Possibly Non-Stationary Regressions and Instruments

Author

Abstract

This paper develops a general theory of instrumental variables (IV) estimation that allows for both I(1) and I(0) regressors and instruments. The estimation techniques involve an extension of the fully modified (FM) regression procedure that was introduced in earlier work by Phillips-Hansen (1990). FM versions of the generalized instrumental variable estimation (GIVE) method and the generalized method of moments (GMM) estimator are developed. In models with both stationary and nonstationary components, the FM-GIVE and FM-GMM techniques provide efficiency gains over FM-IV in the estimation of the stationary components of a model that has both stationary and nonstationary regressors. The paper exploits a result of Phillips (1991a) that we can apply FM techniques in models with cointegrated regressors and even in stationary regression models without losing the method's good asymptotic properties. The present paper shows how to take advantage jointly of the good asymptotic properties of FM estimators with respect to the nonstationary elements of a model and the good asymptotic properties of the GIVE and GMM estimators with respect to the stationary components. The theory applies even when there is no prior knowledge of the number of unit roots in the system or the dimension or the location of the cointegration space. An FM extension of the Sargan (1958) test for the validity of the instruments is proposed.
