Abstract

Whenever the number of instruments equals the number of endogenous variables testing the validity of the instruments is not a feasible task. Based on recent econometric developments (Lewbel, 2012), this article aims at spreading among applied economists and econometricians an empirical strategy to overcome this setback, thus sidestepping the exact identification problem.
