The aim of this thesis is the analysis of certain effects regarding the aggregation of log-normal distributed risks or random variates. Multi-level aggregation designs and a wide range of interdependencies are used for this purpose. In addition, the results are compared to corresponding aggregations of normally distributed risks or random variates. Due to the significant complexity of the research question, the study is conducted via numerical simulation based on a created model. A practical goal of the analysis is, among other things, to raise awareness among creators and users of risk aggregation models to unfavorable impacts of suboptimal assumptions on the modeling and to show which assumptions can massively underestimate the overall risk. Furthermore, theoretical and applied concepts will be provided, which can be used in the context of the organization and management of information processes, which are indispensable today and increasingly essential in future.
