Description
The LHC has found several anomalies in exclusive semileptonic b --> s mu mu decays with a global significance of more than 4 sigma. I will discuss the hadronic uncertainties entering the theoretical prediction for the relevant decays and present model-independent global fits of new physics to the data. The discrimination between high-scale new physics and low-energy QCD effects, as well as the possibility of lepton-flavour universality violation are discussed.
