Imperfect Synthetic Controls

Journal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The synthetic control method assumes the existence of a perfect synthetic control, which cannot exist if the outcomes are functions of transitory shocks with nonzero asymptotic variance and may not exist even in expectation for the treated unit. This paper first shows the benefits of estimating synthetic controls for all units.
