Handbook of Empirical Economics and Finance

This handbook brings together both background material and new methodological and applied results that are extremely important to the current and future frontiers in empirical economics and finance. Well-recognized experts emphasize inferential issues that transpire in the analysis of cross-sectional, time series, and panel data-based empirical models in economics, finance, and related disciplines. Containing previously unpublished material on econometrics, the book focuses on micro (cross-section), macro and financial (time series), and panel data models. It provides a balanced viewpoint of different philosophical positions and statistical tools.
