The Bundesbank, Germany's central bank, said Tuesday it booked a 46 percent increase in net profit for 2008, but warned that the country's economy faces significant risks as global demand for its exports weakens. The Frankfurt-based bank said its net profit for the year rose to 6.26 billion euros (U.S. dlrs 8 billion) from 4.285 billion euros a year ago.
