Shareholder Fees (fees paid directly from your investment) 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 you redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return per year and that the Fund's operating expenses remained the same.

If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher. 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. 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 __% of the average value of its whole portfolio. Instructions. A.3.instructions.6 New Funds.

Risk Parity Fund may invest greater than 25 percent of its assets in a particular region, but not in a single country in that region. Risk Parity Fund may invest in companies of any capitalization.   To manage Risk Parity Funds assets, its sub-adviser uses its proprietary risk parity strategy.  Its risk parity strategy uses an investment model that assigns a country-, sector-, and issuer-risk value to each security in the MSCI EM, and then builds a portfolio of some of those securities that attempts to balance those risks.  In addition to emerging markets securities, Risk Parity Fund also may invest in forward foreign currency exchange contracts as well as other types of derivatives (that is, a security or instrument whose value is determined by reference to the value or the change in value of one or more securities, currencies, indices or other financial instruments) in order to attempt to mitigate the adverse effects of foreign currency fluctuations. Risk Parity Fund also may lend its securities.  Risk Parity Fund may hold cash, or it may manage its cash by investing in cash equivalents and money market funds.  In unusual market conditions, Risk Parity Fund also may take temporary defensive positions, such as large investments in cash, which are inconsistent with its principal investment strategy.falsefalsefalsenonnum:textBlockItemTypenaPrincipal investment strategies of the Fund.

An investment in Risk Parity Fund is not a deposit of a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.   Market, Industry and Specific Holdings.  The share price of Risk Parity Fund may fall because of weakness in the stock markets, generally, weaknesses with respect to a particular industry in which Risk Parity Fund has significant holdings, or weaknesses associated with one or more specific companies in which Risk Parity Fund may have substantial investments.  In addition, Risk Parity Funds strategy, while attempting to limit risks from sudden and substantial market corrections following market bubbles, is unlikely to benefit from market momentum preceding a correction.   Foreign Investing.  Risk Parity Funds investments in foreign securities (including ADRs) may be adversely affected by political and economic conditions overseas, reduced liquidity, or decreases in foreign currency values relative to the U.S. dollar. These risks are especially acute for emerging markets securities.   Emerging Markets Risk.  The risks of foreign investing are heightened for securities of issuers in emerging market countries. Emerging market countries tend to have economic structures that are less diverse and mature, political systems that are less stable, are more susceptible to governmental interference, and less liquid and efficient trading markets than those of developed countries.   Liquidity Risk. Risk Parity Fund may not be able to sell some or all of its securities at desired prices or may be unable to sell the securities at all.   Active Management Risk.  The sub-advisers judgments about the attractiveness, value, or potential appreciation of Risk Parity Funds investments may prove to be incorrect.   Large- and Mid-Capitalization Securities.  Securities issued by large- and mid-cap companies tend to be less volatile than securities issued by smaller companies. Larger companies, however, may not be able to attain the high growth rates of successful smaller companies, especially during strong economic periods, and may be unable to respond as quickly to competitive challenges.   Small- and Micro-Capitalization Securities.  Investments in small- and micro-capitalization companies typically present greater risks than investments in larger companies and, as a result, the performance of Risk Parity Fund may be more volatile than a fund that invests only in large- and mid-cap stocks.   Growth and Value Stock Investing.  Different investment styles periodically come into and fall out of favor with investors. Growth stocks generally are more volatile than the overall stock market. Value stocks generally carry the risk that the market will not recognize their intrinsic value or that they are actually appropriately priced at a low level.   Non-Diversification. Risk Parity Fund is non-diversified, which means that it may from time to time invest a higher percentage of its assets in a smaller number of issuers. As a result, a decline in the value of the securities of one issuer could have a significant negative effect on Risk Parity Fund.  It also may be considered more risky for Risk Parity Fund to hold large positions in a single issuer because of the possibility of exercising control over the issuer.   Sector. Risk Parity Fund may have significant investments in one or more specific industry sectors, subjecting it to risks greater than general market risk.   Securities Lending.  Securities lending involves two primary risks: investment risk and borrower default risk. Investment risk is the risk that Risk Parity Fund will lose money from the investment of the cash collateral received from the borrower. Borrower default risk is the risk that Risk Parity Fund will lose money due to the failure of a borrower to return a borrowed security in a timely manner.   Derivatives.
