Hello,

I'm trying to replicate this model, but I don't understand a phrase of the authors.

This is a simultaneous equation model estimated with generalized method of moments. The variables of interests are TIER1/TIER1+TIER2 ratios and two illiquidity indicators I_NSFR and LC. Both TIER1 and TIER1+TIER2 are dependent in the first equation and independent variables in the second equation;illiquidity indicators are independent in the first equation and dependent in the second. Then there is a set of explanatory variables which some of them al lagged because of endogeneity issue.

My question is what does it mean when the authors say that they "included cross section and time fixed effect in the regression"? How can I include this in my model?

The paper is "Bank regulatory capital and liquidity:Evidence from US and European publicy traded banks".

I've attached the equation model and where they wrote that they included cross-section and time fixed.

Thanks in advice,

Eugenio
