Ivan Etzo <[email protected]>:
It sounds like you should read a shelfful of books on panel methods,
though you won't find the magic bullet you want. I would recommend
you start with -xtivreg- from SSC and use the cluster(id) option where
id identifies panels, then read BSS2007 on some other options:

The command xtscc for ex. is useful for the cross-sectional dependence (nd maybe also heteroskedasticity..?) but not in the case of endogenous covariates. For the endogeneity problem, I tried different commands like ivreg2 and xthtaylor, the last one give nice results in terms of expected coeff signs and their significance, but they don't provide correct SE for cross-sect dependence. Xtgls seems good for heteroskedasticity (and serial correlation) but not for endogeneity.
