This paper analyzes the estimation of econometric models by penalizing the sum of squares of the residuals with a factor that makes the model estimates approximate those that would be obtained when considering the possible simple regressions between the dependent variable of the econometric model and each of its independent variables. It is shown that the ridge estimator is a particular case of the penalized estimator obtained, which, upon analysis of its main characteristics, presents better properties than the ridge especially in reference to the individual boostrap inference of the coefficients of the model and the numerical stability of the estimates obtained. This improvement is due to the fact that instead of shrinking the estimator towards zero, the estimator shrinks towards the estimates of the coefficients of the simple regressions discussed above.
