Financial inclusion and stability in MENA: Evidence from poverty and inequality
Simon Neaime,Isabelle Gaysset +1 more
TLDR
In this paper, the impact of financial inclusion on income inequality, poverty, and financial stability in eight MENA countries over the period 2002-2015 is investigated. And the empirical evidence indicates that while financial integration is a contributing factor to financial instability in MENA, financial inclusion contributes positively to financial stability.About:

Some Tests of Specification for Panel Data: Monte Carlo Evidence and an Application to Employment Equations.
Manuel Arellano,Stephen Bond +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the generalized method of moments (GMM) estimator optimally exploits all the linear moment restrictions that follow from the assumption of no serial correlation in the errors, in an equation which contains individual effects, lagged dependent variables and no strictly exogenous variables.

TL;DR: In this paper, two alternative linear estimators that are designed to improve the properties of the standard first-differenced GMM estimator are presented. But both estimators require restrictions on the initial conditions process.
