Operative part of the judgment
Article 5(2)(a) of Council Directive 2008/7/EC of 12 February 2008 concerning indirect taxes on the raising of capital
must be interpreted as precluding national legislation which provides for the imposition of stamp duty on, first, the remuneration received by a financial institution from a common fund management company for the supply of marketing services for the purposes of new capital contributions aimed at the subscription of newly issued shares in funds and, second, the amounts which that management company receives from common funds in so far as those amounts include the remuneration which that management company has paid to financial institutions in respect of those marketing services.
