Subject Areas: Econometrics Theory, Applied Econometrics and Financial Econometrics
My research mainly focuses on the efficiency and approximation issues in Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) methods for economic data in the presence dependence and heterogeneity. I develop new, more accurate, and easy-to-use approximations to the nonparametric estimator of GMM weighting matrix. Besides the GMM context, I also apply the idea of new asymptotics to other modern econometric models such as triangular cointegration regression and long-horizon predictive regression. I am also interested in applied econometrics, financial econometrics, and Bayesian econometrics.
