Panel versus GARCH Information in Unit Root Testing with an Application to Financial Markets

Westerlund, Joakim LU and Narayan, Paresh (2014) In Economic Modelling Volume 41(August 2014). p.173-176
Abstract
In search for more powerful unit root tests, some researchers have recently proposed accounting for the information contained in the GARCH of the innovations. However, while promising, tests with GARCH are difficult to implement, which has made them quite uncommon in the empirical literature. A computationally attractive alternative is to account not for GARCH but the information contained in a panel of multiple time series. The purpose of the current note is to compare the relative power achievable from these two information sources.
