Abstract

In this paper, we consider dynamic panel data models with heterogeneous time trends. We propose the GMM and ML estimators for this model. We conduct Monte Carlo simulation to compare the performance of these two estimators. The simulation results show that the GMM estimator performs very poorly whereas the ML estimator performs well.
