Portfolio Turnover

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 the Fund’s most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 113% of the average value of its portfolio.

Strategy [Heading]

rr_StrategyHeading

What are the Fund’s main investment strategies?

Strategy Narrative [Text Block]

rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock

The Fund is an emerging markets portfolio that employs strategic and tactical asset selection and allocation processes to actively invest in equity and debt instruments depending on the adviser’s convictions. The size of the allocations between equity and debt instruments will range from 20% to 80% of the Fund’s Assets. There are no limits on the percentage of assets required to be invested in any one country, and, from time to time, the Fund’s investments may be concentrated in a limited number of foreign countries or a single asset class. The Fund is not constrained by market capitalization or style limits and can invest across market industries and sectors.

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of the value of its Assets in equity and debt investments of emerging markets. “Assets” means net assets, plus the amount of borrowings for investment purposes. Emerging markets include most countries in the world except Australia, Canada, Japan, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, the United States, and most of the countries of Western Europe. An emerging market company is one: that is organized under the laws of, or has a principal place of business in an emerging market; where the principal securities market is in an emerging market; that derives at least 50% of its total revenues or profits from goods that are produced or sold, investments made, or services performed in an emerging market; or at least 50% of the assets of which are located in an emerging market.

Total return in the Fund’s objective includes both capital appreciation and current income.

The Fund’s equity investments may include common stock, preferred stock, depositary receipts and equity-linked derivatives. The Fund’s debt investments may include foreign corporate bonds, high yield securities (junk bonds), debt obligations issued or guaranteed by a foreign sovereign government or its agencies, authorities, political subdivisions or instrumentalities, floating rate securities, inflation-indexed bonds, and inflation-linked securities such as Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS).

Derivatives, which are instruments that have a value based on another instrument, exchange rate or index, may also be used as substitutes for securities in which the Fund can invest. The Fund may use futures contracts, options, swaps, participatory notes, structured notes and foreign currency derivatives, including forward contracts.

Swaps may be structured as credit default swaps (CDS) on individual securities, a basket or index of securities, interest rate swaps, total return swaps and price lock swaps. The Fund may use CDS to sell protection (initiate long exposures) in areas of the market that the adviser believes are attractively valued and buy protection (initiate short positions) in areas that the adviser believes are not attractive from a valuation perspective.

In certain market environments, the Fund may use interest rate swaps and futures contracts to help protect its portfolio from interest rate risk. The Fund may use participatory notes, structured notes and swaps to gain exposure to particular foreign securities or markets. The Fund may hedge its non-dollar investments back to the U.S. dollar through the use of such derivatives, but may not always do so. In addition to hedging non-dollar investments, the Fund may opportunistically use foreign currency derivatives to increase income and gain to the Fund and/or as part of its risk management process.

The Fund may also use exchange-traded futures for the efficient management of cash flows.

Investment Process: In managing the Fund, the adviser allocates assets between the equity and debt portions of the portfolio. The portfolio management team will meet regularly to determine the allocation by evaluating various factors through a quantitative model and consulting with equity, debt and currency specialists for fundamental insight. These allocations will change based on the adviser’s conviction to either equity or debt and are reviewed on a periodic basis. Within each portion of the Fund, the asset class portfolio managers are responsible for security selection and portfolio construction.

In selecting equity securities, the adviser takes a long-term approach and invests in its highest conviction ideas that come from both top-down and bottom-up analyses. These ideas will primarily be generated by a team of dedicated emerging markets investment professionals across the world using a combination of macro research, fundamental stock selection and quantitative screening. The adviser is value oriented and makes decisions to purchase and sell individual securities after analyzing the recommendations of the emerging markets investment professionals and determining the overall investment view of the equity portion of the Fund.

In selecting debt instruments, the adviser invests in its highest conviction ideas across three sub-strategies: sovereign debt denominated in U.S. dollars, sovereign debt denominated in local currency, and corporate debt. The adviser utilizes dedicated investment processes to identify what it believes are the most attractive opportunities within each sub-strategy. Each investment process combines quantitative analysis, fundamental/qualitative research and technical analysis. The adviser makes decisions to purchase and sell individual instruments and securities after reviewing the recommendations from each sub-strategy and determining the overall investment view. The adviser will actively manage the Fund’s currency exposure within its locally denominated sovereign debt holdings.

The Fund’s Main Investment Risks

Risk Narrative [Text Block]

rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock

The Fund is subject to management risk and may not achieve its objective if the adviser’s expectations regarding particular securities or markets are not met.

An investment in this Fund or any other fund may not provide a complete investment program. The suitability of an investment in the Fund should be considered based on the investment objective, strategies and risks described in this Prospectus, considered in light of all of the other investments in your portfolio, as well as your risk tolerance, financial goals and time horizons. You may want to consult with a financial advisor to determine if this Fund is suitable for you.

Foreign Securities and Emerging Markets Risk. Because the Fund invests in foreign securities, it is subject to special risks in addition to those applicable to U.S. investments. These risks include political and economic risks, civil conflicts and war, greater volatility, expropriation and nationalization risks, sanctions or other measures by the United States or other governments, currency fluctuations, higher transaction costs, delayed settlement, possible foreign controls on investment, and less stringent investor protection and disclosure standards of foreign markets. The securities markets of many foreign countries are relatively small, with a limited number of companies representing a small number of industries. If foreign securities are denominated and traded in a foreign currency, the value of the Fund’s foreign holdings can be affected by currency exchange rates and exchange control regulations. In certain markets where securities and other instruments are not traded “delivery versus payment,” the Fund may not receive timely payment for securities or other instruments it has delivered or receive delivery of securities paid for and may be subject to increased risk that the counterparty will fail to make payments or delivery when due or default completely. Events and evolving conditions in certain economies or markets may alter the risks associated with investments tied to countries or regions that historically were perceived as comparatively stable becoming riskier and more volatile. These risks are magnified in “emerging markets”. Emerging market countries typically have less-established market economies than developed countries and may face greater social, economic, regulatory and political uncertainties. In addition, emerging markets typically present greater illiquidity and price volatility concerns due to smaller or limited local capital markets and greater difficulty in determining market valuations of securities due to limited public information on issuers.

Equity Market Risk. The price of equity securities may rise or fall because of changes in the broad market or changes in a company’s financial condition, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. These price movements may result from factors affecting individual companies, sectors or industries selected for the Fund’s portfolio or the securities market as a whole, such as changes in economic or political conditions. When the value of the Fund’s securities goes down, the value of your investment in the Fund decreases in value.

General Market Risk. Economies and financial markets throughout the world are becoming increasingly interconnected, which increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one country or region will adversely impact markets or issuers in other countries or regions.

Sovereign Debt Risk. The Fund may invest in securities issued or guaranteed by foreign governmental entities (known as sovereign debt securities). These investments are subject to the risk of payment delays or defaults, due, for example, to cash flow problems, insufficient foreign currency reserves, political considerations, large debt positions relative to the country’s economy or failure to implement economic reforms. There is no legal or bankruptcy process for collecting sovereign debt.

Currency Risk. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates will affect the value of the Fund’s securities and the price of the Fund’s shares. Generally, when the value of the U.S. dollar rises in value relative to a foreign currency, an investment in that country loses value because that currency is worth fewer U.S. dollars. Devaluation of a currency by a country’s government or banking authority also will have a significant impact on the value of any investments denominated in that currency. Currency markets generally are not as regulated as securities markets.

Interest Rate Risk. The Fund’s fixed income securities will increase or decrease in value based on changes in interest rates. If rates increase, the value of the Fund’s investments generally declines. On the other hand, if rates fall, the value of the investments generally increases. Your investment will decline in value if the value of these investments decreases. The Fund invests in variable and floating rate loans and other variable and floating rate securities. Although these instruments are generally less sensitive to interest rate changes than fixed rate instruments, the value of floating rate loans and other securities may decline if their interest rates do not rise as quickly, or as much, as general interest rates. Securities with greater interest rate sensitivity and longer maturities are subject to greater fluctuations in value. Usually, changes in the value of fixed income securities will not affect cash income generated, but may affect the value of your investment. Many factors can cause interest rates to rise. Some examples include central bank monetary policy, rising inflation rates and general economic conditions. Given the historically low interest rate environment, risks associated with rising rates are heightened.

Credit Risk. The Fund’s investments are subject to the risk that issuers and/or counterparties will fail to make payments when due or default completely. If an issuer’s or a counterparty’s financial condition worsens, the credit quality of the issuer or counterparty may deteriorate making it difficult for the Fund to sell such investments.

Depositary Receipt Risk. The Fund’s investments may take the form of depositary receipts, including unsponsored depositary receipts. Unsponsored depositary receipts may not provide as much information about the underlying issuer and may not carry the same voting privileges as sponsored depositary receipts. Unsponsored depositary receipts are issued by one or more depositaries in response to market demand, but without a formal agreement with the company that issues the underlying securities.

Small Cap Company Risk. Investments in small cap companies may be riskier, more volatile and more vulnerable to economic, market and industry changes than investments in larger, more established companies. As a result, share price changes may be more sudden or erratic than the prices of other equity securities, especially over the short term.

Inflation-Linked Securities Risk. Unlike conventional bonds, the principal or interest of inflation-linked securities such as TIPS is adjusted periodically to a specified rate of inflation (e.g., Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers (CPI-U)). There can be no assurance that the inflation index used will accurately measure the real rate of inflation. These securities may lose value in the event that the actual rate of inflation is different than the rate of the inflation index.

Geographic Focus Risk. The Fund may focus its investments in a region or small group of countries. As a result, the Fund’s performance may be subject to greater volatility than a more geographically diversified fund.

High Yield Securities Risk. The Fund may invest in securities that are issued by companies that are highly leveraged, less creditworthy or financially distressed. These investments (known as junk bonds) are considered to be speculative and are subject to greater risk of loss, greater sensitivity to economic changes, valuation difficulties and potential illiquidity.

Derivatives Risk. Derivatives may be riskier than other types of investments because they may be more sensitive to changes in economic or market conditions than other types of investments and could result in losses that significantly exceed the Fund’s original investment. Many derivatives create leverage thereby causing the Fund to be more volatile than it would be if it had not used derivatives. Derivatives also expose the Fund to counterparty risk (the risk that the derivative counterparty will not fulfill its contractual obligations), including credit risk of the derivative counterparty. Certain derivatives are synthetic instruments that attempt to replicate the performance of certain reference assets. With regard to such derivatives, the Fund does not have a claim on the reference assets and is subject to enhanced counterparty risk. Under certain market conditions, the Fund’s use of derivatives for cash management or other investment management purposes could be significant.

Structured Note Risk. The Fund may invest in equity and fixed income linked structured notes. Structured notes are typically privately negotiated transactions between two or more parties. The fees associated with a structured note may lead to increased tracking error. The Fund also bears the risk that the issuer of the structured note will default. The Fund bears the risk of loss of its principal investment and periodic payments expected to be received for the duration of its investment. In addition, a liquid market may not exist for the structured notes. The lack of a liquid market may make it difficult to sell the structured notes at an acceptable price or to accurately value them.

Preferred Stock Risk. The Fund may invest in preferred stock. Preferred stock generally has a preference as to dividends and liquidation over an issuer’s common stock but ranks junior to debt securities in an issuer’s capital structure. Unlike interest payments on debt securities, preferred stock dividends are payable only if declared by the issuer’s board of directors. Preferred stock also may be subject to optional or mandatory redemption provisions.

Redemption Risk. The Fund could experience a loss when selling securities to meet redemption requests by shareholders. The risk of loss increases if the redemption requests are unusually large or frequent or occur in times of overall market turmoil or declining prices.

Investments in the Fund are not deposits or obligations of, or guaranteed or endorsed by, any bank and are not insured or guaranteed by the FDIC, the Federal Reserve Board or any other government agency.
