A bstract The inert Zee model is an extension of the Zee model for neutrino masses to allow for a solution to the dark matter problem that involves two vector-like fields, a doublet and a singlet of SU(2) L , and two scalars, also a doublet and a singlet of SU(2) L , all of them being odd under an exact Z 2 symmetry. The introduction of the Z 2 guarantees one-loop neutrino masses, forbids tree-level Higgs-mediated flavor changing neutral currents and ensures the stability of the dark matter candidate. Due to the natural breaking of lepton numbers in the inert Zee model and encouraged by the ambitious experimental program designed to look for charged lepton flavor violation signals and the electron electric dipole moment, we study the phenomenology of the processes leading to these kind of signals, and establish which are the most promising experimental perspectives on that matter.
