In this paper, we consider a non-parametric regression model relying on Riesz estimators. This linear regression model is similar to the usual linear regression model since they both rely on projection operators. We indicate that Riesz estimator regression relies on the positive basis elements of the finite-dimensional sub-lattice generated by the rows of some design matrix. A strong motivation for using the Riesz estimator model is that the data of explanatory variables may come from categorical variables. Calculations related to Riesz estimator regression are very easy since they arise from the measurability in finite-dimensional probability spaces. Moreover, we show that the fitted model of Riesz estimators is an ordinary least squares model. Any vector of some Euclidean space is supposed to be a rendom variable under the objective probability values, being used in expected utility theory and its applications. Finally, the reader may notice that goodness-of-fit measures are similar to those defined for the usual linear regression. Due to the fact that this model is non-parametric, it may include samples relevant to finance and actuarial science variables.
