Methodological considerations upon Stochastic Frontier Analysis for panel data models: evidence from cost-efficiency ECF model in the Argentine Banking Sector.

In this paper we make a methodological analysis of the Error Components Frontier (ECF) panel data model performance based on Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) method for cost efficiency benchmarking in the presence of small panels and outliers. By means of a set of simulations and a subsequent appl...
