D.ABPFirst difference-6.63*** -5.24*** -6.49***

 Significance levels are, respectively, 1% (***), 5% (**) and 10% (*). The different models comprise an intercept and no trend. The sample comprises 65 observations for BAF and 63 for ABP.

1 Critical values for the ADF test are, respectively, -3.56, -2.92 and -2.59 for the 1%, 5% and 10% levels.

2 Critical values for the DF-GLS test are respectively -2.61, -2.23 and -1.92 for the 1%, 5% and 10% levels.
