Thanks.  Yes, and no.  Yes in that xtmelogit for crossed-level model uses
Laplace approximation.  However, when I tried specifying the intpoints option,
STATA generates an error message as below:

. xtmelogit fail refinance || _all:R.year || _all:R.hub || _all:R.originator_n,
intpoints(5 5 5)
wrong number of intpoints() specifications
r(198);

Could you tell me what went wrong?

Maybe:  with the cross-classified random effects model that your syntax implies,
you only have one level, and not three levels as in a hierarchical model.  So,
try -intpoints(5)-.
