Baseline and sub-period model results with breakpoints (BP)
Note: The results of the Breusch-Godfrey test indicate that there is no autocorrelation in the models. The results of the Breusch-Pagan-Godfrey test indicate that there is no heteroskedasticity in the models with the usual level of significance. *, **, *** indicates statistical significance at 10%, 5% and 1%, respectively.
