  1. Source: authors’ calculations. All estimations were conducted with clustered standard errors, reported in parenthesis. P values are reported only for the F test (last row). The Hausman test, conducted for all regressions, rejects the null hypothesis in which the unobserved time-invariant component is uncorrelated with the model’s covariates
  2. ***, **, * correspond to significance levels of 1, 5 and 10 %, respectively. Coefficients for time dummies are not reported
