From the naturalness point of view, the first LHC results seem to disfavour any constrained MSSM realization with universal conditions at the SUSY-breaking scale. A more motivated scenario is given by split-family SUSY, in which the first two generations of squarks are heavy. This scenario is compatible with a U(2)^3 flavour symmetry, instead of the U(3)^3 normally invoked by Minimal Flavour Violation. In this talk, we build such a framework and extend it to the lepton sector, such that neutrino data can also be used to gain information on the sfermion sector. We then analyse the consequences for quark and lepton phenomenology.
