I need to run a two-step System-GMM, but due to my lack of experience in using this kind of approach, I'm not sure if my model is correctly specified.
My dependent variable is I
My explanatory regressors are: P Arpc Etanol (endogenous)
I also want to include time dummies - 11 years (exogenous)
I'm considering the first two lags as instruments to the difference equation and the first lag as instrument to the level equation.
My code is specified as:
My output is reported above:
Can anyone indicate me whether my equation specification is right?
