I discuss far-flung ramifications of light-quark flavor physics for searches for physics beyond the Standard Model and consider, particularly, its role in the interpretation of CP-violating observables in meson decays.
In these proceedings we provide a brief overview of the status of flavour physics, with focus on opportunities to discover New Physics in flavour-violating decays at current and future colliders.

Updated standard model predictions for $D_{(s)} \to P l^+ l^-$, $l=e,\mu$, $P=\pi,K$ and inclusive decays are presented. Model-independent constraints on $|\Delta C|=|\Delta U|=1$ Wilson coefficients are worked out. New physics (NP)…

We investigate to what extent the recently measured value for a non-vanishing direct CP asymmetry in D0 -> K+ K- and D0 -> pi+ pi- decays can be accommodated in the Standard Model (SM) or extensions with a constrained flavour sector, for…
The study of CP violation in $B$-meson decays has already reached a high level of precision, which will be pushed even higher in the future era of Belle-II and the LHCb upgrade. %Important probes of CP violation are the $B_d^0$ and $B_s^0$…
