Note(s): 1. The results of GMM estimations of how control of corruption and growth affect poverty is shown in the table. The time frame spans from 1996 to 2022; 2. Standard errors are in brackets; 3. Significance is indicated at the 1, 5, and 10% levels, respectively, by ***, **, and *; 4. The Hansen test is used to check whether estimations of the GMM dynamic model over-identify constraints. The Arellano-A bond test is used in the AB test AR (1) and AR (2), where the average auto-covariance in residuals of rank 1 and order 2, respectively, is 0 (H0: no autocorrelation); p-values are indicated in brackets
