Optimal Panel Unit Root Testing with Covariates

Joudis, Arturas and Westerlund, Joakim LU (2019) In Econometrics Journal 22(1). p.57-72
Abstract
This paper provides asymptotic optimality results for panel unit root tests with covariates by deriving the Gaussian power envelope. The main conclusion is that the use of covariates holds considerable promise in the panel data context, much more so than in the time series context. In fact, the use of the covariates not only leads to increased power, but can actually have an order effect on the shrinking neighborhoods around unity for which power is non‐negligible.
