Structural Break Difference GMM
Structural Break Difference GMM extends the Arellano-Bond first-difference GMM estimator to dynamic panel settings where the data-generating process shifts at one or more unknown breakpoints. By explicitly incorporating break indicators or allowing regime-specific parameters, the estimator avoids the biased coefficient and invalid moment conditions that arise when a structural change is ignored in a standard Difference GMM fit.
