Edgeworth approximations for semiparametric instrumental variable estimators and test statistics

Abstract

We establish the validity of higher order asymptotic expansions to the distribution of a version of the nonlinear semiparametric instrumental variable considered in Newey (1990) as well as to the distribution of a Wald statistic derived from it. We employ local polynomial smoothing with variable bandwidth, which includes local linear, kernel, and [a version of] nearest neighbour estimates as special cases. Our expansions are valid to order n �2є for some 0
