Dear all,
my master thesis deals with the research question what drives the capital structure of microfinance institutions. I retrieved unbalanced panel data from Microfinance Information Exchange and would like to run panel regression with fixed effects.
-How should I handle missing values? Since the MIX data is self reported I cannot assume a random documenting error (...can I?)
-One of my independent variables is growth opportunities and I plan to use historic growth in assets as proxy for growth opportunities but how should I compute it if historic values are missing?
I highly appreciate any suggestions.
Use the Compound Rate of Interest Formula in computing the rate of Growth and then, use the rate of growth in finding (predicting) the missing data
