         Operative part of the judgment
      
      Article 135(1)(a) of Council Directive 2006/112/EC of 28 November 2006 on the common system of value added tax must be interpreted as meaning that the value added tax (VAT) exemption which it lays down does not apply to services provided by a taxable person, which include the supply of an insurance product to an insurance company and, accessorily, the placement of that product on behalf of that company and the management of insurance contracts concluded, in the event that the referring court categorises those services as a single supply for VAT purposes.
