Leader Total Return Fund

Leader Total Return Fund

Investment Objective:

The investment objective of the Leader Total Return Fund (the “Fund”) is to seek income and capital appreciation to produce a high total return.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund:

The following table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Fund.

Shareholder Fees (fees paid directly from your investment)

Shareholder Fees Leader Total Return Fund	Leader Total Return Fund Institutional Shares	Leader Total Return Fund Investor Shares	Leader Total Return Fund Class A Shares	Leader Total Return Fund Class C Shares
Maximum Sales Charge (Load) Imposed on Purchases (as a % of offering price)	none	none	3.50%	none
Maximum Deferred Sales Charge (Load) (as a % of the lower of original purchase price or redemption proceeds)	none	none	none	1.00%

Redemption Fee (as a percentage of amount redeemed, on shares held less than six months)	2.00%	2.00%	2.00%	2.00%

Annual Fund Operating Expenses (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)

Operating Expenses Leader Total Return Fund		Leader Total Return Fund Institutional Shares	Leader Total Return Fund Investor Shares	Leader Total Return Fund Class A Shares	Leader Total Return Fund Class C Shares
Management Fees		0.75%	0.75%	0.75%	0.75%

Other Expenses		1.00%	1.00%	1.13%	1.00%
Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses	[1]	0.03%	0.03%	0.03%	0.03%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses		1.78%	2.28%	2.41%	2.78%
Fee Waiver and Reimbursement	[2]	(0.40%)	(0.40%)	(0.53%)	(0.40%)
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and Reimbursement		1.38%	1.88%	1.88%	2.38%

Example:

 This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.  

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based upon these assumptions your costs would be:

Expense Example Leader Total Return Fund (USD $)	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Leader Total Return Fund Institutional Shares	140	521	927	2,062
Leader Total Return Fund Investor Shares	191	674	1,184	2,585
Leader Total Return Fund Class A Shares	534	1,025	1,544	2,961
Leader Total Return Fund Class C Shares	341	824	1,434	3,080

Portfolio Turnover:

 The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio).  A higher portfolio turnover 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 most recent fiscal year, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 218.66% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies:

 The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in domestic and foreign fixed income securities of various maturities and credit qualities that are denominated in U.S. dollars or foreign currencies.  Fixed income security types include bonds, notes, debentures and other evidence of indebtedness issued by corporations, governments and their agencies or instrumentalities as well as mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities.  

Individual securities are purchased without restriction as to maturity or duration, however, the average portfolio duration normally varies within two years of the duration of the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Intermediate Bond Index (formerly named the Lehman Brothers U.S. Aggregate Index), which as of July 31, 2012 was 3.45 - years.  Duration is a measure of the expected life of a fixed income security that is used to determine the sensitivity of a security's price to changes in interest rates.  

The Fund invests primarily in investment-grade securities, but may invest up to 40% of its total assets in high yield securities (commonly referred to as "junk bonds").  The Fund defines junk bonds as those rated lower than Baa3 by Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's") or lower than BBB- by Standard and Poor's Rating Group ("S&P"), or, if unrated, determined by the Advisor to be of similar credit quality.  However, the Fund restricts its junk bond purchases to those rated B3 or higher by Moody's or B- or higher by S&P, or, if unrated, determined by the advisor to be of comparable quality.  

The Fund invests primarily in U.S. dollar denominated securities, but may invest up to 30% of its total assets in securities denominated in foreign currencies, whether issued by U.S. or foreign entities.  Foreign issues denominated in U.S. dollars will be excluded from the 30% allocation limit.

The Advisor allocates Fund assets among various fixed income sectors, maturities and specific issues using an opportunistic approach by assessing risk and reward among fixed income peer groups.

·

Sector selection focuses on identifying portions of the fixed income market that the advisor believes offer the highest yield, or expected capital appreciation from interest rate declines or currency exchange rate gains.

·

Maturity or yield curve management focuses on selecting securities with maturities that have the highest yield and/or highest potential capital appreciation, when compared to securities with shorter or longer maturities.

·

Security selection focuses on identifying specific securities that offer the highest yield or expected capital appreciation when compared to a peer group of securities with similar credit quality and maturity.

The Advisor buys securities for either or both their interest income and their potential for capital appreciation, generally resulting from decreases in interest rates, foreign currency appreciation, or improving credit fundamentals for a particular sector or security.  The Advisor may sell a security if its value becomes unattractive, such as when its fundamentals deteriorate or when other investment opportunities exist that may have more attractive yields.  The Advisor may engage in frequent buying and selling of securities to achieve the Fund's investment objective.

Principal Investment Risks:

 As with all mutual funds, there is the risk that you could lose money through your investment in the Fund.  Many factors affect the Fund's net asset value and performance.  

·

Credit Risk:  Issuers may not make interest and principal payments on securities held by the Fund, resulting in losses to the Fund.  In addition, the credit quality of securities held by the Fund may be lowered if an issuer's financial condition changes.  Lower credit quality may lead to greater volatility in the price of a security and lower liquidity making it difficult for the Fund to sell the security.  

·

Currency Risk:  Currency trading risks include market risk, credit risk and country risk.  Market risk results from adverse changes in exchange rates in the currencies the Fund is long or short.  Credit risk results because a currency-trade counterparty may default.  Country risk arises because a government may interfere with transactions in its currency.

·

Foreign Risk:  Foreign securities expose the Fund to greater risks because their value depends on issues other than the performance of the U.S. economy and U.S. companies and may include unfavorable changes in foreign exchange rates.  Investing in emerging markets imposes risks different from, or greater than, risks of investing in foreign developed countries.

·

High-Yield Bond Risk:  Lower-quality bonds, known as "high - yield" or "junk" bonds, present greater risk than bonds of higher quality, including an increased risk of default.  An economic downturn or period of rising interest rates could adversely affect the market for these bonds and reduce the Fund's ability to sell its bonds.  The lack of a liquid market for these bonds could decrease the Fund's share price.  The ability of governments to repay their obligations is adversely impacted by default, insolvency, bankruptcy or by political instability, including authoritarian and/or military involvement in governmental decision-making, armed conflict, civil war, social instability and the impact of these events and circumstances on a country’s economy and its government's revenues.  Therefore, government bonds can present a significant risk.  Governments may also repudiate their debts in spite of their ability to pay.  A Fund's ability to recover from a defaulting government is limited because that same government may block access to court-mandated legal remedies or other means of recovery.  

·

Interest Rate Risk:  The value of fixed income securities decline when interest rates rise.  

·

Issuer-Specific Risk:  The value of a specific security can be more volatile than the market as a whole and can perform differently from the value of the market as a whole.

·

Limited History of Operations:  The Fund is a new mutual fund and has a limited history of operation.  

·

Liquidity Risk:  Some securities may have few market-makers and low trading volume, which tends to increase transaction costs and may make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of a security at all or at a price which represents current or fair market value.

·

Management Risk:  The advisor's judgments about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of particular security in which the Fund invests may prove to be incorrect and may not produce the desired results.

·

Market Risk:  Overall fixed income market risks may affect the value of individual securities in which the Fund invests.  Factors such as global interest rate levels, economic growth, market conditions and political events affect the fixed income securities markets.  When the value of the Fund's investments goes down, your investment in the Fund decreases in value and you could lose money.

·

Mortgage-Backed and Asset-Backed Risk:  The default rate on underlying mortgage loans or asset loans may be higher than anticipated, potentially reducing payments to the Fund.  Default rates are sensitive to overall economic conditions such as unemployment, wage levels and economic growth rates.  Mortgage-backed securities are susceptible maturity risk because issuers of securities held by the Fund are able to prepay principal due on these securities, particularly during periods of declining interest rates.

·

Portfolio Turnover Risk:  Increased portfolio turnover may result in higher brokerage commissions, dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs and may result in taxable capital gains.

Performance:

The bar chart and table set out below help show the returns and risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows the annual returns of the Fund's Investor Class shares for each calendar year since the Fund's inception. The performance table compares the performance of the Fund's Investor Class shares over time to the performance of the Barclays Aggregate Bond Index. Returns would be lower for the Institutional Class shares. You should be aware that the Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) may not be an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future. Because the Fund's Class A and Class C shares have less than a full calendar year of investment operations, no performance information is presented for them at this time.  In the future, performance information for Class A and Class C shares will be presented in this section of the Prospectus.  Updated performance information is available at no cost by visiting www.leadercapital.com or by calling (800) 711-9164.

Calendar Year Returns as of December 31

Best Quarter:	1st Quarter 2011	5.13%
Worst Quarter:	3rd Quarter 2011	(6.73)%

The Fund's Investor Class shares had a total return of 4.49% during the period January 1, 2012 to June 30, 2012.

Average Annual Total Returns (For the periods ended December 31, 2011)

Average Annual Returns Leader Total Return Fund	One Year	Since Inception	Inception Date
Leader Total Return Fund Investor Shares	(0.32%)	0.64%	Jul. 30, 2010
Leader Total Return Fund Investor Shares After Taxes on Distributions	(1.52%)	(0.63%)
Leader Total Return Fund Investor Shares After Taxes on Distributions and Sale of Fund Shares	(0.19%)	(0.17%)
Leader Total Return Fund Institutional Shares	0.36%	0.81%	Jul. 30, 2010
Barclays Aggregate Bond Index	7.84%	5.51%

After tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the effect of state and local taxes.  Actual after-tax returns depend on an investor’s tax situation and may differ from those shown, and after-tax returns shown are not relevant to investors who hold shares of the Fund through tax-deferred arrangements, such as 401(k) plans or IRAs.  After-tax returns are shown for only Investor Class shares, and after-tax returns for other classes will vary.

The Barclays Aggregate Bond Index is a market capitalization-weighted index, meaning the securities in the index are weighted according to the market size of each bond type. Most U.S. traded investment grade bonds are represented. Municipal bonds and Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities are excluded, due to tax treatment issues. The index includes Treasury securities, Government agency bonds, mortgage-backed bonds, corporate bonds, and a small amount of foreign bonds traded in U.S.  Unlike a mutual fund, an index does not reflect any trading costs or management fees.  Investors cannot directly invest in an index.  

[1] Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses are the indirect costs of investing in other investment companies. The operating expenses in this fee table will not correlate to the expense ratio in the Fund's financial highlights because the financial statements include only the direct operating expenses incurred by the Fund.

[2] The Fund's adviser has contractually agreed to waive its fees and/or reimburse expenses of the Fund, at least until September 30, 2013 to ensure that Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and/or Reimbursement (exclusive of any brokerage fees and commissions, distribution fees, 12b-1 fees, Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses, borrowing costs, taxes and extraordinary expenses, such as litigation, do not exceed 1.35% of its average daily net assets of the Fund. These fee waivers and expense reimbursements are subject to possible recoupment from the Fund in future years on a rolling three-year basis (within the three years after the end of the fiscal year in which the fees have been waived or reimbursed) if such recoupment can be achieved within the foregoing expense limits. This agreement may be terminated only by the Fund's Board of Trustees, on 60 days written notice to the Fund's adviser.

Strategy [Heading]

rr_StrategyHeading

Principal Investment Strategies:

Strategy Narrative [Text Block]

rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock

The Fund expects to achieve its objectives by investing in a portfolio of investment grade debt securities and non-investment grade (also known as “junk bonds”) debt securities, both domestic and foreign.  Fixed income securities in which the Fund may invest include foreign and domestic bonds, notes, corporate debt, government securities, strips and municipal securities.  The Fund’s effective average duration will normally be three years or less.  The Fund also may hold cash or cash equivalents, and it may enter into repurchase agreements.   Leader Capital Corp., (the ” Advisor “) utilizes a fundamental top-down analysis, meaning the Advisor analyzes the economy, interest rate cycles, the supply and demand for credit and the characteristics of individual securities in making investment selections.

Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its assets in fixed income securities.  This policy may not be changed without at least 60 days’ advance notice to shareholders in writing.  The Fund may invest up to 30% of its assets in lower-quality, high yield bonds rated B or higher by Moody’s Investors Service, Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group or other Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization (“NRSRO”) or, if unrated by such NRSROs, determined by the Advisor to be of comparable quality.  The Fund also may invest in bonds with the potential for capital appreciation.  The Fund may invest up to 20% of its assets, determined at the time of investment, in foreign fixed income securities denominated in foreign currencies.  Foreign fixed income securities may be investment grade, below investment grade or unrated.  The Fund may use options and credit default swaps to manage investment risk and liquidity.   

The Fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in cash, cash equivalents and fixed income securities other than as described above.  By keeping some cash or cash equivalents, the Fund may avoid realizing gains and losses from selling investments when there are shareholder redemptions.  However, the Fund may have difficulty meeting its investment objectives when holding a significant cash position.  Floating- and variable-rate securities will be considered as cash equivalents.

The Advisor will consider a floating- or variable-rate security to have a maturity equal to its stated maturity (or redemption date if it has been called for redemption), except that it may consider: (1) variable-rate securities to have a maturity equal to the period remaining until the next readjustment in the interest rate, unless subject to a demand feature; (2) variable-rate securities subject to a demand feature to have a remaining maturity equal to the longer of (a) the next readjustment in the interest rate or (b) the period remaining until the principal can be recovered through demand; and (3) floating-rate securities subject to a demand feature to have a maturity equal to the period remaining until the principal can be recovered through demand.  Variable- and floating-rate securities generally are subject to less principal fluctuation than securities without these attributes.

As noted above, the Fund’s effective average duration will normally be three years or less.  Effective duration is a measure of a fixed income security’s average life that reflects the present value of the security’s cash flow, and accordingly, is a measure of price sensitivity to interest rate changes.  Effective duration is expressed in years, like maturity, but it is a better indicator of price sensitivity than maturity because it takes into account the time value of cash flows generated over the security’s life.  Future interest and principal payments are discounted to reflect their present value and then are multiplied by the number of years they will be received to produce a value expressed in years.  You can estimate the effect of interest rates on a fixed income fund’s share price by multiplying the fund’s effective duration by an expected change in interest rates.  For example, the share price of a fixed income fund with an effective duration of three years would be expected to fall approximately 3% if interest rates rose by one percentage point.

 The Advisor may sell a security if its value becomes unattractive, such as when its fundamentals deteriorate or when other investment opportunities exist that may have more attractive yields.    

Strategy Portfolio Concentration [Text]

rr_StrategyPortfolioConcentration

Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its assets in fixed income securities.

Risk [Heading]

rr_RiskHeading

Principal Investment Risks:

Risk Narrative [Text Block]

rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock

 As with all mutual funds, there is the risk that you could lose money through your investment in the Fund.  Many factors affect the Fund's net asset value and performance.  

·

Interest Rate Risk:  The value of the Fund may fluctuate based on changes in interest rates and market conditions.  As interest rates rise, the value of income producing instruments may decrease.  This risk increases as the term of the note increases.  Income earned on floating- or variable-rate securities will vary as interest rates decrease or increase.  Variable- and floating-rate securities generally are less susceptible to interest rates than fixed-rate obligations.  However, the interest rates on variable-rate securities, as well as certain floating-rate securities whose interest rates are reset only periodically, can fluctuate in value as a result of interest rate changes when there is an imperfect correlation between the interest rates on the securities and prevailing market interest rates.   

·

Credit Risk:  The issuer of a fixed income security may not be able to make interest or principal payments when due.  Generally, the lower the credit rating of a security, the greater the risk is that the issuer will default on its obligation.  Credit risks associated with Auction Rate Securities (“ARS”) mirror those of other bond issues in terms of default risk associated with the issuers.  Because ARS do not carry a put feature allowing the bondholder to require the purchase of the bonds by the issuer or a third party, they are very sensitive to changes in credit ratings and normally require the highest ratings (e.g., AAA/Aaa) to make them marketable.

·

High - Yield Bond Risk.  Lower-quality bonds, known as high - yield bonds or “junk bonds,” present a significant risk for loss of principal and interest.  These bonds offer the potential for higher return, but also involve greater risk than bonds of higher quality, including an increased possibility that the bond’s issuer, obligor or guarantor may not be able to make its payments of interest and principal (credit quality risk).  If that happens, the value of the bond may decrease, and the Fund’s share price may decrease and its income distribution may be reduced.  An economic downturn or period of rising interest rates (interest rate risk) could adversely affect the market for these bonds and reduce the Fund’s ability to sell its bonds (liquidity risk).  The lack of a liquid market for these bonds could decrease the Fund’s share price.  The ability of governments to repay their obligations is adversely impacted by default, insolvency, bankruptcy or by political instability, including authoritarian and/or military involvement in governmental decision-making, armed conflict, civil war, social instability and the impact of these events and circumstances on a country’s economy and its government's revenues.  Therefore, government bonds can present a significant risk.  Governments may also repudiate their debts in spite of their ability to pay.  A Fund's ability to recover from a defaulting government is limited because that same government may block access to court-mandated legal remedies or other means of recovery.  

·

Management Risk.  The strategy used by the Advisor may fail to produce the intended results.  The ability of the Fund to meet its investment objectives is directly related to the Advisor’s investment strategies for the Fund.  Your investment in the Fund varies with the effectiveness of the Advisor’s research, analysis and asset allocation among portfolio securities.  If the Advisor’s investment strategies do not produce the expected results, your investment could be diminished or even lost.

·

Foreign Risk.  Foreign investments involve additional risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. Government securities and/or securities of domestic companies, including currency rate fluctuations, political and economic instability, differences in financial reporting standards and less strict regulation of securities markets.  Securities subject to these risks may be less liquid than those that are not subject to these risks.

·

Derivatives Risk.  When writing put and call options, the Fund is exposed to declines in the value of the underlying asset against which the option was written.  To the extent required, the Fund will cover the financial exposure created by writing put and call options either by purchasing or selling offsetting options or futures or designating liquid assets to cover such financial exposure.  When purchasing options, the Fund is exposed to the potential loss of the option purchase price.  Derivatives may be illiquid and the market for derivatives is largely unregulated.  The use of derivatives may not always be a successful strategy and using them could lower the Fund’s return.

·

Legislative Change Risk.  Municipal securities are subject to the risk that legislative changes and local and business developments may adversely affect the yield or value of the Fund’s investments in such securities.  

·

Government Securities Risk.  It is possible that the U.S. Government would not provide financial support to its agencies or instrumentalities if it is not required to do so by law. If a U.S. Government agency or instrumentality in which the Fund invests defaults and the U.S. Government does not stand behind the obligation, the Fund’s share price or yield could fall.  Securities of U.S. Government sponsored entities, such as Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae, are neither issued nor guaranteed by the U.S. Government.  The U.S. Government’s guarantee of ultimate payment of principal and timely payment of interest of the U.S. Government securities owned by the Fund does not imply that the Fund’s shares are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency, or that the price of the Fund’s shares will not fluctuate.

·

Portfolio Turnover Risk. The frequency of a Fund’s transactions will vary from year to year. Increased portfolio turnover may result in higher brokerage commissions, dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs and may result in taxable capital gains. Higher costs associated with increased portfolio turnover may offset gains in a Fund’s performance.  The Fund’s portfolio turnover is expected to be over 100% annually, as the Fund is actively traded.

The Fund is not a complete investment program.  As with any mutual fund investment, the Fund’s returns will vary and you could lose money.

Is the Fund right for you?

The Fund may be suitable for:

• long-term investors seeking a high level of current income;

• investors willing to accept price and return fluctuations associated with lower-quality investments;

• investors seeking to diversify their holdings with a portfolio consisting primarily of short-term fixed income securities; or

• investors seeking to reduce their portfolio’s interest rate risk.

Leader Short-Term Bond Fund

Leader Short-Term Bond Fund

Investment Objectives:

The primary investment objective of the Leader Short-Term Bond Fund (the “Fund”) is to deliver a high level of current income,

with a secondary objective of capital appreciation.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund:

The following table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Fund.

Shareholder Fees (fees paid directly from your investment)

Shareholder Fees Leader Short-Term Bond Fund	Leader Short-Term Bond Fund Institutional Shares	Leader Short-Term Bond Fund Investor Class Shares	Leader Short-Term Bond Fund Class A Shares	Leader Short-Term Bond Fund Class C Shares

Annual Fund Operating Expenses (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)

Operating Expenses Leader Short-Term Bond Fund		Leader Short-Term Bond Fund Institutional Shares	Leader Short-Term Bond Fund Investor Class Shares	Leader Short-Term Bond Fund Class A Shares	Leader Short-Term Bond Fund Class C Shares
Management Fees		0.75%	0.75%	0.75%	0.75%

Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses		0.99%	1.49%	1.58%	1.99%

Example:

 This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.  

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based upon these assumptions your costs would be:

Expense Example Leader Short-Term Bond Fund (USD $)	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Leader Short-Term Bond Fund Institutional Shares	101	315	547	1,213
Leader Short-Term Bond Fund Investor Class Shares	152	471	813	1,780
Leader Short-Term Bond Fund Class A Shares	505	831	1,180	2,163
Leader Short-Term Bond Fund Class C Shares	302	624	1,073	2,317

Portfolio Turnover:

 The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio).  A higher portfolio turnover 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 most recent fiscal year, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 284.91% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies:

The Fund expects to achieve its objectives by investing in a portfolio of investment grade debt securities and non-investment grade (also known as “junk bonds”) debt securities, both domestic and foreign.  Fixed income securities in which the Fund may invest include foreign and domestic bonds, notes, corporate debt, government securities, strips and municipal securities.  The Fund’s effective average duration will normally be three years or less.  The Fund also may hold cash or cash equivalents, and it may enter into repurchase agreements.   Leader Capital Corp., (the ” Advisor “) utilizes a fundamental top-down analysis, meaning the Advisor analyzes the economy, interest rate cycles, the supply and demand for credit and the characteristics of individual securities in making investment selections.

Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its assets in fixed income securities.  This policy may not be changed without at least 60 days’ advance notice to shareholders in writing.  The Fund may invest up to 30% of its assets in lower-quality, high yield bonds rated B or higher by Moody’s Investors Service, Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group or other Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization (“NRSRO”) or, if unrated by such NRSROs, determined by the Advisor to be of comparable quality.  The Fund also may invest in bonds with the potential for capital appreciation.  The Fund may invest up to 20% of its assets, determined at the time of investment, in foreign fixed income securities denominated in foreign currencies.  Foreign fixed income securities may be investment grade, below investment grade or unrated.  The Fund may use options and credit default swaps to manage investment risk and liquidity.   

The Fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in cash, cash equivalents and fixed income securities other than as described above.  By keeping some cash or cash equivalents, the Fund may avoid realizing gains and losses from selling investments when there are shareholder redemptions.  However, the Fund may have difficulty meeting its investment objectives when holding a significant cash position.  Floating- and variable-rate securities will be considered as cash equivalents.

The Advisor will consider a floating- or variable-rate security to have a maturity equal to its stated maturity (or redemption date if it has been called for redemption), except that it may consider: (1) variable-rate securities to have a maturity equal to the period remaining until the next readjustment in the interest rate, unless subject to a demand feature; (2) variable-rate securities subject to a demand feature to have a remaining maturity equal to the longer of (a) the next readjustment in the interest rate or (b) the period remaining until the principal can be recovered through demand; and (3) floating-rate securities subject to a demand feature to have a maturity equal to the period remaining until the principal can be recovered through demand.  Variable- and floating-rate securities generally are subject to less principal fluctuation than securities without these attributes.

As noted above, the Fund’s effective average duration will normally be three years or less.  Effective duration is a measure of a fixed income security’s average life that reflects the present value of the security’s cash flow, and accordingly, is a measure of price sensitivity to interest rate changes.  Effective duration is expressed in years, like maturity, but it is a better indicator of price sensitivity than maturity because it takes into account the time value of cash flows generated over the security’s life.  Future interest and principal payments are discounted to reflect their present value and then are multiplied by the number of years they will be received to produce a value expressed in years.  You can estimate the effect of interest rates on a fixed income fund’s share price by multiplying the fund’s effective duration by an expected change in interest rates.  For example, the share price of a fixed income fund with an effective duration of three years would be expected to fall approximately 3% if interest rates rose by one percentage point.

 The Advisor may sell a security if its value becomes unattractive, such as when its fundamentals deteriorate or when other investment opportunities exist that may have more attractive yields.    

Principal Investment Risks:

 As with all mutual funds, there is the risk that you could lose money through your investment in the Fund.  Many factors affect the Fund's net asset value and performance.  

·

Interest Rate Risk:  The value of the Fund may fluctuate based on changes in interest rates and market conditions.  As interest rates rise, the value of income producing instruments may decrease.  This risk increases as the term of the note increases.  Income earned on floating- or variable-rate securities will vary as interest rates decrease or increase.  Variable- and floating-rate securities generally are less susceptible to interest rates than fixed-rate obligations.  However, the interest rates on variable-rate securities, as well as certain floating-rate securities whose interest rates are reset only periodically, can fluctuate in value as a result of interest rate changes when there is an imperfect correlation between the interest rates on the securities and prevailing market interest rates.   

·

Credit Risk:  The issuer of a fixed income security may not be able to make interest or principal payments when due.  Generally, the lower the credit rating of a security, the greater the risk is that the issuer will default on its obligation.  Credit risks associated with Auction Rate Securities (“ARS”) mirror those of other bond issues in terms of default risk associated with the issuers.  Because ARS do not carry a put feature allowing the bondholder to require the purchase of the bonds by the issuer or a third party, they are very sensitive to changes in credit ratings and normally require the highest ratings (e.g., AAA/Aaa) to make them marketable.

·

High - Yield Bond Risk.  Lower-quality bonds, known as high - yield bonds or “junk bonds,” present a significant risk for loss of principal and interest.  These bonds offer the potential for higher return, but also involve greater risk than bonds of higher quality, including an increased possibility that the bond’s issuer, obligor or guarantor may not be able to make its payments of interest and principal (credit quality risk).  If that happens, the value of the bond may decrease, and the Fund’s share price may decrease and its income distribution may be reduced.  An economic downturn or period of rising interest rates (interest rate risk) could adversely affect the market for these bonds and reduce the Fund’s ability to sell its bonds (liquidity risk).  The lack of a liquid market for these bonds could decrease the Fund’s share price.  The ability of governments to repay their obligations is adversely impacted by default, insolvency, bankruptcy or by political instability, including authoritarian and/or military involvement in governmental decision-making, armed conflict, civil war, social instability and the impact of these events and circumstances on a country’s economy and its government's revenues.  Therefore, government bonds can present a significant risk.  Governments may also repudiate their debts in spite of their ability to pay.  A Fund's ability to recover from a defaulting government is limited because that same government may block access to court-mandated legal remedies or other means of recovery.  

·

Management Risk.  The strategy used by the Advisor may fail to produce the intended results.  The ability of the Fund to meet its investment objectives is directly related to the Advisor’s investment strategies for the Fund.  Your investment in the Fund varies with the effectiveness of the Advisor’s research, analysis and asset allocation among portfolio securities.  If the Advisor’s investment strategies do not produce the expected results, your investment could be diminished or even lost.

·

Foreign Risk.  Foreign investments involve additional risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. Government securities and/or securities of domestic companies, including currency rate fluctuations, political and economic instability, differences in financial reporting standards and less strict regulation of securities markets.  Securities subject to these risks may be less liquid than those that are not subject to these risks.

·

Derivatives Risk.  When writing put and call options, the Fund is exposed to declines in the value of the underlying asset against which the option was written.  To the extent required, the Fund will cover the financial exposure created by writing put and call options either by purchasing or selling offsetting options or futures or designating liquid assets to cover such financial exposure.  When purchasing options, the Fund is exposed to the potential loss of the option purchase price.  Derivatives may be illiquid and the market for derivatives is largely unregulated.  The use of derivatives may not always be a successful strategy and using them could lower the Fund’s return.

·

Legislative Change Risk.  Municipal securities are subject to the risk that legislative changes and local and business developments may adversely affect the yield or value of the Fund’s investments in such securities.  

·

Government Securities Risk.  It is possible that the U.S. Government would not provide financial support to its agencies or instrumentalities if it is not required to do so by law. If a U.S. Government agency or instrumentality in which the Fund invests defaults and the U.S. Government does not stand behind the obligation, the Fund’s share price or yield could fall.  Securities of U.S. Government sponsored entities, such as Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae, are neither issued nor guaranteed by the U.S. Government.  The U.S. Government’s guarantee of ultimate payment of principal and timely payment of interest of the U.S. Government securities owned by the Fund does not imply that the Fund’s shares are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency, or that the price of the Fund’s shares will not fluctuate.

·

Portfolio Turnover Risk. The frequency of a Fund’s transactions will vary from year to year. Increased portfolio turnover may result in higher brokerage commissions, dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs and may result in taxable capital gains. Higher costs associated with increased portfolio turnover may offset gains in a Fund’s performance.  The Fund’s portfolio turnover is expected to be over 100% annually, as the Fund is actively traded.

The Fund is not a complete investment program.  As with any mutual fund investment, the Fund’s returns will vary and you could lose money.

Is the Fund right for you?

The Fund may be suitable for:

• long-term investors seeking a high level of current income;

• investors willing to accept price and return fluctuations associated with lower-quality investments;

• investors seeking to diversify their holdings with a portfolio consisting primarily of short-term fixed income securities; or

• investors seeking to reduce their portfolio’s interest rate risk.

Performance:

The bar chart and table set out below help show the returns and risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows the annual returns of the Fund's Investor Class shares for each calendar year since the Fund's inception.

Expenses Not Correlated to Ratio Due to Acquired Fund Fees [Text]

rr_ExpensesNotCorrelatedToRatioDueToAcquiredFundFees

Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses are the indirect costs of investing in other investment companies. The operating expenses in this fee table will not correlate to the expense ratio in the Fund's financial highlights because the financial statements include only the direct operating expenses incurred by the Fund.

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based upon these assumptions your costs would be:

Strategy [Heading]

Principal Investment Strategies:

Strategy Narrative [Text Block]

rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock

 The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in domestic and foreign fixed income securities of various maturities and credit qualities that are denominated in U.S. dollars or foreign currencies.  Fixed income security types include bonds, notes, debentures and other evidence of indebtedness issued by corporations, governments and their agencies or instrumentalities as well as mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities.  

Individual securities are purchased without restriction as to maturity or duration, however, the average portfolio duration normally varies within two years of the duration of the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Intermediate Bond Index (formerly named the Lehman Brothers U.S. Aggregate Index), which as of July 31, 2012 was 3.45 - years.  Duration is a measure of the expected life of a fixed income security that is used to determine the sensitivity of a security's price to changes in interest rates.  

The Fund invests primarily in investment-grade securities, but may invest up to 40% of its total assets in high yield securities (commonly referred to as "junk bonds").  The Fund defines junk bonds as those rated lower than Baa3 by Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's") or lower than BBB- by Standard and Poor's Rating Group ("S&P"), or, if unrated, determined by the Advisor to be of similar credit quality.  However, the Fund restricts its junk bond purchases to those rated B3 or higher by Moody's or B- or higher by S&P, or, if unrated, determined by the advisor to be of comparable quality.  

The Fund invests primarily in U.S. dollar denominated securities, but may invest up to 30% of its total assets in securities denominated in foreign currencies, whether issued by U.S. or foreign entities.  Foreign issues denominated in U.S. dollars will be excluded from the 30% allocation limit.

The Advisor allocates Fund assets among various fixed income sectors, maturities and specific issues using an opportunistic approach by assessing risk and reward among fixed income peer groups.

·

Sector selection focuses on identifying portions of the fixed income market that the advisor believes offer the highest yield, or expected capital appreciation from interest rate declines or currency exchange rate gains.

·

Maturity or yield curve management focuses on selecting securities with maturities that have the highest yield and/or highest potential capital appreciation, when compared to securities with shorter or longer maturities.

·

Security selection focuses on identifying specific securities that offer the highest yield or expected capital appreciation when compared to a peer group of securities with similar credit quality and maturity.

The Advisor buys securities for either or both their interest income and their potential for capital appreciation, generally resulting from decreases in interest rates, foreign currency appreciation, or improving credit fundamentals for a particular sector or security.  The Advisor may sell a security if its value becomes unattractive, such as when its fundamentals deteriorate or when other investment opportunities exist that may have more attractive yields.  The Advisor may engage in frequent buying and selling of securities to achieve the Fund's investment objective.

Risk [Heading]

rr_RiskHeading

Principal Investment Risks:

Risk Narrative [Text Block]

rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock

 As with all mutual funds, there is the risk that you could lose money through your investment in the Fund.  Many factors affect the Fund's net asset value and performance.  

·

Credit Risk:  Issuers may not make interest and principal payments on securities held by the Fund, resulting in losses to the Fund.  In addition, the credit quality of securities held by the Fund may be lowered if an issuer's financial condition changes.  Lower credit quality may lead to greater volatility in the price of a security and lower liquidity making it difficult for the Fund to sell the security.  

·

Currency Risk:  Currency trading risks include market risk, credit risk and country risk.  Market risk results from adverse changes in exchange rates in the currencies the Fund is long or short.  Credit risk results because a currency-trade counterparty may default.  Country risk arises because a government may interfere with transactions in its currency.

·

Foreign Risk:  Foreign securities expose the Fund to greater risks because their value depends on issues other than the performance of the U.S. economy and U.S. companies and may include unfavorable changes in foreign exchange rates.  Investing in emerging markets imposes risks different from, or greater than, risks of investing in foreign developed countries.

·

High-Yield Bond Risk:  Lower-quality bonds, known as "high - yield" or "junk" bonds, present greater risk than bonds of higher quality, including an increased risk of default.  An economic downturn or period of rising interest rates could adversely affect the market for these bonds and reduce the Fund's ability to sell its bonds.  The lack of a liquid market for these bonds could decrease the Fund's share price.  The ability of governments to repay their obligations is adversely impacted by default, insolvency, bankruptcy or by political instability, including authoritarian and/or military involvement in governmental decision-making, armed conflict, civil war, social instability and the impact of these events and circumstances on a country’s economy and its government's revenues.  Therefore, government bonds can present a significant risk.  Governments may also repudiate their debts in spite of their ability to pay.  A Fund's ability to recover from a defaulting government is limited because that same government may block access to court-mandated legal remedies or other means of recovery.  

·

Interest Rate Risk:  The value of fixed income securities decline when interest rates rise.  

·

Issuer-Specific Risk:  The value of a specific security can be more volatile than the market as a whole and can perform differently from the value of the market as a whole.

·

Limited History of Operations:  The Fund is a new mutual fund and has a limited history of operation.  

·

Liquidity Risk:  Some securities may have few market-makers and low trading volume, which tends to increase transaction costs and may make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of a security at all or at a price which represents current or fair market value.

·

Management Risk:  The advisor's judgments about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of particular security in which the Fund invests may prove to be incorrect and may not produce the desired results.

·

Market Risk:  Overall fixed income market risks may affect the value of individual securities in which the Fund invests.  Factors such as global interest rate levels, economic growth, market conditions and political events affect the fixed income securities markets.  When the value of the Fund's investments goes down, your investment in the Fund decreases in value and you could lose money.

·

Mortgage-Backed and Asset-Backed Risk:  The default rate on underlying mortgage loans or asset loans may be higher than anticipated, potentially reducing payments to the Fund.  Default rates are sensitive to overall economic conditions such as unemployment, wage levels and economic growth rates.  Mortgage-backed securities are susceptible maturity risk because issuers of securities held by the Fund are able to prepay principal due on these securities, particularly during periods of declining interest rates.

·

Portfolio Turnover Risk:  Increased portfolio turnover may result in higher brokerage commissions, dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs and may result in taxable capital gains.

The bar chart and table set out below help show the returns and risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows the annual returns of the Fund's Investor Class shares for each calendar year since the Fund's inception. The performance table compares the performance of the Fund's Investor Class shares over time to the performance of the Barclays Aggregate Bond Index. Returns would be lower for the Institutional Class shares. You should be aware that the Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) may not be an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future. Because the Fund's Class A and Class C shares have less than a full calendar year of investment operations, no performance information is presented for them at this time.  In the future, performance information for Class A and Class C shares will be presented in this section of the Prospectus.  Updated performance information is available at no cost by visiting www.leadercapital.com or by calling (800) 711-9164.

The Barclays Aggregate Bond Index is a market capitalization-weighted index, meaning the securities in the index are weighted according to the market size of each bond type. Most U.S. traded investment grade bonds are represented. Municipal bonds and Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities are excluded, due to tax treatment issues. The index includes Treasury securities, Government agency bonds, mortgage-backed bonds, corporate bonds, and a small amount of foreign bonds traded in U.S.  Unlike a mutual fund, an index does not reflect any trading costs or management fees.  Investors cannot directly invest in an index.
