*Rare Higgs Decays*

Higgs is light enough that its dominant decay is to a pair of b and anti-b quarks,
while the decays to W and Z are phase-space suppressed. This means that the decay
width of the Higgs is small, only 4 MeV in the Standard Model. Non-standard Higgs
decays can thus be relatively important and can be used to search for New  Physics.
In my talk I will mainly focus on the constraints we already have from the low energy
observables on CP violating Higgs decays as well as on how light-quark Yukawa
couplings could in principle be measured from exclusive Higgs decays.
