Starting values in estimation of cointegrating vectors with restrictions

Applied Economics Letters, 2001, vol. 8, issue 8, 521-524

Abstract: In cointegration analysis, when considering a hypothesis of the kind β = (H <1 ϕ 1,..., H n ϕ n) the estimation technique is a simple switching method that requires starting values. Using additional restrictions, the solution of an eigenvector problem may be used as starting values. Using a real world data set the proposed starting values seem to be better than the old, and sometimes they are much better.
