Performance Table Narrative rr_PerformanceTableNarrativeTextBlock
[1] The expense information in the table has been restated to reflect current fees rather than the fees in effect during the previous fiscal year.
[2] "Acquired Fund" means any investment company in which the Fund invests or has invested during the previous fiscal year. The "Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses" and "Net Annual Fund Operating Expenses" will not match the Fund's gross and net expense ratios reported in the Financial Highlights from the Fund's financial statements, which reflect the operating expenses of the Fund and do not include Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses.
[3] The Advisor has entered into an Expense Limitation Agreement with the Fund under which it has agreed to waive or reduce its fees and to assume other expenses of the Fund, if necessary, in an amount that limits the Fund's annual operating expenses (exclusive of interest, taxes, brokerage fees and commissions, extraordinary expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses, and payments under the Rule 12b-1 distribution plan) to not more than 1.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund for Institutional and Class C shares. Net annual operating expenses for the Fund may exceed these limits to the extent that it incurs expenses enumerated above as exclusions. The Expense Limitation Agreement runs through September 30, 2018, and may not be terminated prior to that date except via action of the Trust's board of trustees. The Advisor cannot recoup from the Fund any amounts paid by the Advisor under the Expense Limitation Agreement.
[4] The Institutional Class Shares began operating on September 20, 2012. The Class C Shares began operating on September 26, 2012. The performance of the Fund is attributable to its previous investment adviser until July 31, 2015.
[5] In prior prospectuses, the Fund compared its performance against the S&P Global Broad Market Index. The Advisor believes the S&P 500 Total Return Index is a more appropriate and accurate index against which to compare the Fund's investment strategies than the S&P Global Broad Market Index and, therefore, the S&P 500 Total Return Index will replace the S&P Global Broad Market Index in future comparisons.
