  This paper is a written version of a talk on rare (FCNC) D meson decays as
presented at the Electroweak Moriond 2002. The presentation proceeds in two
parts. We first consider Standard Model predictions, taking into account both
short-distance and long distance effects. Then several New Physics options
(e.g. supersymmatry, strong dynamics, extra large dimenions, etc) are
considered.
