Hi there and a happy new year!
I've got a question regarding the VaR-function from the 
PerformanceAnalytics-package. When I call it in order to compute VaR 
contributions using the nonparametric kernel estimator, I get an error 
report. Obviously this is independent of my data, because I can 
replicate it using the edhec example data, as shown below. Does anybody 
have a hint how to deal with this problem?
Cheers,
Gero
