Variance Ratio Tests for Panels With Cross‐Section Dependence
Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper develops panel variance ratio statistics to examine serial dependence in time series with cross‐sectional dependence. We derive asymptotic properties for panels where the cross‐section dimension N$$ N $$ is fixed or grows with T. Using a factor structure to explain cross‐sectional dependence, we propose a common correlation effects ...
