Abstract. This article describes a new Stata command called xtwest, which
implements the four error-correction–based panel cointegration tests
developed by Westerlund (2007). The tests are general enough to allow for a
large degree of heterogeneity, both in the long-run cointegrating
relationship and in the short-run dynamics, and dependence within as well as
across the cross-sectional units.
