Abstract
Recently Gregory and Hansen (1996) proposed a number of residual-based tests for cointegration in models with the possibility of a structura l break. They considered three models: (i) level shift; (ii) level shi ft with trend; and (iii) regime shift (both level shift and slope coef ficients can change). We introduce a more general model that permits a trend shift as well as a regime shift and we provide the critical val ues appropriate for testing this hypothesis.
