Raknerud, Arvid (Discussion Papers;No. 330, Working paper, 2002)Abstract: This paper discusses identification, estimation and testing in panel data models with attrition. We focus on a situation which often occurs in the analysis of firms: Attrition (exit) is endogenous and depends ... -
Identifying the elasticity of substitution between capital and labour: a pooled GMM panel estimator
Brasch, Thomas von; Raknerud, Arvid; Vigtel, Trond Christian (Discussion Paper;No. 976, Working paper, 2022-03)Simultaneity represents a fundamental problem when estimating the elasticity of substitution between capital and labour. To overcome this problem, a wide variety of external instruments has been applied in the literature. ... -
Indirect inference methods for stochastic volatility models based on non-Gaussian Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes
Raknerud, Arvid; Skare, Øivind (Discussion Papers;601, Working paper, 2009)This paper aims to develop new methods for statistical inference in a class of stochastic volatility models for financial data based on non-Gaussian Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) processes.

Multivariate stochastic volatility models based on non-Gaussian Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes : a quasi-likelihood approach
Raknerud, Arvid; Skare, Øivind (Discussion Papers;614, Working paper, 2010)This paper extends the ordinary quasi-likelihood estimator for stochastic volatility models based on non-Gaussian Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) processes to vector processes. Despite the fact that multivariate modeling of asset ... -
A new approach to estimating private returns to R&D
Cappelen, Ådne; Mohnen, Pierre; Raknerud, Arvid; Rybalka, Marina (Discussion Paper;No. 1005, Working paper, 2023-08)This paper revisits the estimation of private returns to R&D.
