Abstract: This note considers the estimation of dynamic threshold regression models with fixed effects using short panel data. We examine a two-step method, where the threshold parameter is estimated nonparametrically at the N-rate and the remaining parameters are estimated by GMM at the root N-rate. We provide simulation results that illustrate the potential advantages of the new method in comparison with pure GMM estimation. The simulations also highlight the importance the choice of instruments in GMM estimation.
