Each block of results correspond to the system (1) estimated by three-stage least squares seemingly unrelated regression (SURE) with iteratively convergence to ML estimates, as in Tables 1, 2 and 3 for the full sample, OECD and non-OECD (blocks A, B and C, respectively). Other regressors’ coefficient estimates are available upon request. Time and countries dummies are included but not presented for reasons of parsimony. Heteroskedastic-consistent standard errors are in parentheses. ***, ** and * denote significant coefficients, respectively at the 1, 5 and 10% confidence levels
