The Structure of Simultaneous Equation Estimators: A Generalization Towards Nonnormal Disturbances
Ingmar R. Prucha

Abstract
A general linear simultaneous equation system with a multivariate Student t disturbance vector is considered. The normal equations of the corresponding maximum likelihood estimator are used as estimator generating equations to introduce a new class of estimators. Properties of large subclasses of these estimators are determined for disturbance vectors other than the multivariate Student t.
