Before revision:  Based on this identification strategy we provide consistent estimators of the network formation model under NTU. Finite-sample performance of our method is analyzed in a simulationstudy, and an empirical illustration using the risk-sharing network data from Nyakatoke demonstrates that our proposed method is able to obtain economically intuitive estimates .
After revision:  We provide a consistent estimator and analyze its performance via simulation, and apply our method to the Nyakatoke risk-sharing network data from Nyakatoke demonstrates that our proposed method is able to obtain economically intuitive estimates .
