Abstract
We discuss the prospects for searches of low-energy supersymmetry in the time interval separating us from the advent of LHC. In this period of time “indirect” searches may play a very relevant role. We refer to manifestations of supersymmetry in flavour changing neutral current and CP violating phenomena and to signals of the lightest supersymmetric particle in searches of dark matter. In the first part of the talk we critically review the status of the minimal supersymmetric model to discuss the chances that direct and indirect supersymmetric searches may have before the LHC start. In the second part we point out what we consider to be the most promising grounds where departures from the standard model prediction may signal the presence of new physics, possibly of supersymmetric nature. We argue that the often invoked complementarity of direct and indirect searches of low-energy supersymmetry is becoming even more true in the pre-LHC era.Keywords
