Abstract: The standard stochastic frontier analysis is extended to allow integrated and cointegrated variables. We developed the statistical inference for the cointegrating vector under non-symmetric behaviour of the regression errors. Monte-Carlo evidence demonstrates the importance of taking into account cointegration.
