In combcoint: A Joint Test-Statistic for the Null of Non-Cointegration

combcoint

combcoint is an R package which provides, among other things, the combined non-cointegration tests of Bayer and Hanck. The following cointegration tests are implemented:

bayerhanck() to perform the Combining non-cointegration test which is implemented in two different versions.
boswijk() performs the structural error correction model cointegration test by Boswijk (1994)
banerjee() performs the error-correction-based cointregration test by Banerjee (1998)
englegranger() performs the residual-based cointregration test by Engle and Granger (1987) and is a wrapper for the ur.df of the urca package
johansen() performs the system-based maximum likelihood cointegration test by Johansen (1988) and is a wrapper function for the rank.test of the tsDyn package. Note that first the transformation to a VECM is needed.

The development version can be downloaded from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("Janine-Langerbein/combcoint")

First install the package as described above


# example data from the MTS package 
data("mts-examples", package = "MTS")
