Semiparametric Factor Models with Time-varying Covariates with Applications in Asset Pricing

主讲人 Qihui Chen 简介 <p>This paper provides a trustworthy and simple method for estimation and inference on semiparametric factor models with time-varying covariates. Specifically, we establish asymptotic properties of the estimators for the intercept function, the factor loading functions, the unobserved factors, and the number of factors. In particular, we establish a strong approximation for the distributions of the estimators of the intercept function and the factor loading functions. We also develop a bootstrap inference for testing their significance and linearity. The results do not require large T or smoothness of covariates over time, and therefore have a wide application in asset pricing.</p>
