Description
We present a formalism to extend the well-know Minimal Flavour Violation approach for physics beyond the Standard Model. As a guideline for the flavour pattern we adopt a Froggatt-Nielsen inspired power counting. We study the phenomenological implications when taking into account the spurions associated with a $U_1$ vector leptoquark and their compatibility with flavour data and the anomalies in $B$ decays. As a result of our analysis we observe that leptonic $B$ decays constitute an important test to probe these scenarios.
