The $B_c$ decay rate in the Standard Model

The Standard Model decay rate of the $B_c$ meson is discussed together with a novel approach based on the usage of experimental data in combination with an operator product expansion. In the new method differences of $B,\,D$ and $B_c$ meson decay rates are considered, for which the free-quark contributions drop out, leading to a reduction of the theory prediction.
