Aggregate planning enables you to plan demand for a product family and not on individual product. Risk pooling allows you to be able to use same safety stock to cover for a group of products rather than maintaining different safety stock for individual product. Therefore aggregate planning helps you with the info necessary to do risk pooling for a group of similar products.
