Portfolio Turnover [Text Block] rr_PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During its most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 44% of the average value of its portfolio.

Strategy [Heading] rr_StrategyHeading Principal Investment Strategy.
Strategy Narrative [Text Block] rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock

Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in a non-diversified portfolio of publicly-traded equity securities issued by U.S. and non-U.S. companies. Equity securities in which the Fund will invest as a principal investment strategy consist of common stocks, American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), Global Depositary Receipts (“GDRs”) and Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”). Under normal market conditions, the Fund will allocate its assets among issuers located in at least three different countries and will invest at least 40% of its net assets in non-U.S. companies. The Fund’s subadviser, Magellan Asset Management Limited doing business as MFG Asset Management (“MFG Asset Management”), may reduce the 40% minimum investment amount to 30% if it deems market conditions to be unfavorable. In selecting securities for the Fund, MFG Asset Management seeks to identify high-quality companies at attractive prices while integrating an in-depth macroeconomic understanding in order to manage risk. With respect to its non-U.S. investments, the Fund invests in companies located in developed countries but may also invest in emerging markets as part of its principal investment strategy. The Fund will normally hold a limited number (generally 20 to 40) of companies, typically with a market capitalization in excess of U.S. $25 billion at the time of purchase. The Fund will typically hold up to 20% of its total assets in cash and cash equivalents. The Fund may have significant investments in the technology sector.

Risk [Heading] rr_RiskHeading Principal Investment Risks.
Risk Narrative [Text Block] rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock

Market Risks; Recent Market Events. The Fund’s investments are subject to market risk, which may cause the value of the Fund’s investments to decline. If the value of the Fund’s investments goes down, the share price of the Fund will go down, and you may lose money. U.S. and international markets have experienced volatility in recent months and years due to a number of economic, political and global macro factors, including the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) global pandemic, which has resulted in public health issues, business interruptions, growth concerns in the U.S. and overseas, layoffs, rising unemployment claims, changed travel and social behaviors and reduced consumer spending. The effects of COVID-19 may lead to a substantial economic downturn or recession in the U.S. and global economies, the recovery from which is uncertain and may last for an extended period of time. Continuing market volatility may have adverse effects on the Fund.

 

Common Stocks Risks. Common stocks held by the Fund will fluctuate in value based on the earnings of the company and on general industry and market conditions leading to fluctuations in the Fund’s share price.

 

REIT Risks. A REIT’s share price may decline because of adverse developments affecting the underlying industry, including changes to interest rates. The returns of REITs may trail returns of the overall market. The Fund’s investments in REITs may be subject to special tax rules, or a particular REIT may fail to qualify for the favorable federal income tax treatment applicable to REITs, the effect of which may have adverse tax consequences for the Fund and shareholders. The Fund will indirectly bear its proportionate share of expenses incurred by REITs in which the Fund invests in addition to the expenses incurred directly by the Fund.

 

Foreign Securities Risks. Investments in securities of foreign companies involve additional risks, including less liquidity, currency-rate fluctuations, political and economic instability, differences in financial reporting standards and securities market regulation, and the imposition of foreign withholding taxes.

 

Emerging Markets Risks. Emerging market countries may have relatively unstable governments, weaker economies and less developed legal systems with fewer securities holder rights. Emerging market economies may be based on only a few industries and security issuers may be more susceptible to economic weakness and more likely to default. Emerging market securities also tend to be less liquid.

 

Currency Risks. The value of the Fund’s foreign holdings as measured in U.S. dollars may be affected unfavorably by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Fund may also incur costs in connection with conversions between various currencies.

 

Non-Diversification Risks. The Fund is non-diversified, which means it may invest more of its assets in a smaller number of companies than funds that are diversified. Gains or losses on a single stock may have greater impact on the Fund than for funds that invest in a greater number of companies.

 

Stock Selection Risks. The stocks selected for the Fund may decline in value or not increase in value when the stock market in general is rising.

 

Large Capitalization Risks. Larger, more established companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges, such as changes in consumer tastes or innovative, smaller competitors. Large-cap companies are also sometimes unable to attain the high growth rates of successful, smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion.

 

ADR/GDR Risks. The risks of ADRs and GDRs include many of the risks associated with investing directly in foreign securities, such as currency-rate fluctuations and political and economic instability.

 

Management Risks. The Fund is subject to management risk as an actively-managed investment portfolio and depends on the decisions of the portfolio manager to produce the desired results.

 

Sector Emphasis Risks. Although MFG Asset Management selects stocks based on their individual merits, some economic sectors will represent a larger portion of the Fund’s overall investment portfolio than other sectors. Potential negative market or economic developments affecting one of the larger sectors could have a greater impact on the Fund than on a fund with fewer holdings in that sector.

 

Technology Sector Risk. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in companies within the technology sector, there are risks that may affect technology companies. These risks include regulatory risk, the risk of a reduction in competitiveness and loss of market share, uncertainty regarding future revenue, and reputational or operational risks from significant data breaches or cyber-attacks.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents Risk. Because the Fund typically holds cash and cash equivalents, the Fund risks achieving lower investment returns when the cash is not invested in securities that have appreciated in value, which could negatively impact the Fund’s performance and ability to achieve its investment objective.

 

Cybersecurity Risks. Despite the various protections utilized by the Fund and its service providers, systems, networks, or devices utilized by the Fund can be potentially breached. The Fund and its shareholders could be negatively impacted as a result of a cybersecurity breach.

Risk Lose Money [Text] rr_RiskLoseMoney If the value of the Fund’s investments goes down, the share price of the Fund will go down, and you may lose money.
Risk Nondiversified Status [Text] rr_RiskNondiversifiedStatus The Fund is non-diversified, which means it may invest more of its assets in a smaller number of companies than funds that are diversified. Gains or losses on a single stock may have greater impact on the Fund than for funds that invest in a greater number of companies.
