Hello everyone,

I'm interested in fitting a var model with some exogenous variables on panel 
data for N countries. 

I figured an easy way to do this would be
-var y x1 x2, exog(country1-countryN other) noc

where "country" are indicator variables giving a country-specific intercept, 
and "other" are other exogenous variables.

Are there any problems with such an approach? Does this approach assume that 
the country effects are Fixed Effects? Is this a problem?

Any advice y'all might give would be appreciated. Many thanks.

--John
