The table below describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and
hold Class A Shares of the Fund. You may qualify for sales charge discounts if
you and your family invest, or agree to invest in the future, at least $100,000
in Class A Shares of the Frost Funds (Class A Shares purchased without an
initial sales charge may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge if
redeemed within 12 months of purchase). More information about these and other
discounts is available from your financial professional and in the section
"Sales Charges" on page 104 of this prospectus.

Portfolio Turnover 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
total 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 10% of the average value of its portfolio.

Investment Strategy, Heading rr_StrategyHeading PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
Investment Strategy, Narrative rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock 
Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in
municipal securities that generate income exempt from federal income tax, but
not necessarily the federal alternative minimum tax ("AMT"). These securities
include securities of municipal issuers located in Texas as well as in other
states, territories and possessions of the United States. This investment
policy may not be changed without shareholder approval. The Fund may invest
more than 25% of its total assets in bonds of issuers in Texas.

The Adviser considers the relative yield, maturity and availability of various
types of municipal bonds and the general economic outlook in determining
whether to over- or under-weight a specific type of municipal bond in the
Fund's portfolio. Duration adjustments are made relative to the Barclays
Capital Municipal Bond Index. The Adviser, in constructing and maintaining the
Fund's portfolio, employs the following four primary strategies to varying
degrees depending on its views of economic growth prospects, interest rate
predictions and relative value assessments: interest rate positioning based on
duration and yield curve positioning, with a typical range of three years;
asset category allocations; credit sector allocations relating to security
ratings by the national ratings agencies; and individual security selection.

Securities will be considered for sale in the event of or in anticipation of a
credit downgrade; to effect a change in duration or sector weighting of the
Fund; to realize an aberration in a security's valuation; or when the Adviser
otherwise deems appropriate.
Risk, Heading rr_RiskHeading PRINCIPAL RISKS
Risk, Narrative rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock 
As with all mutual funds, a shareholder is subject to the risk that his or her
investment could lose money. A FUND SHARE IS NOT A BANK DEPOSIT AND IT IS NOT
INSURED OR GUARANTEED BY THE FDIC, OR ANY GOVERNMENT AGENCY. The principal risks
affecting shareholders' investments in the Fund are set forth below.

MUNICIPAL ISSUERS RISK -- There may be economic or political changes that
impact the ability of municipal issuers to repay principal and to make interest
payments on municipal securities. Changes in the financial condition or credit
rating of municipal issuers also may adversely affect the value of the Fund's
municipal securities. Constitutional or legislative limits on borrowing by
municipal issuers may result in reduced supplies of municipal securities.
Moreover, certain municipal securities are backed only by a municipal issuer's
ability to levy and collect taxes.

STATE-SPECIFIC RISK -- The Fund is subject to the risk that the economy of the
states in which it invests, and the revenues underlying state municipal bonds,
may decline.  Investing primarily in a single state means that the Fund is more
exposed to negative political or economic factors in that state than a fund
that invests more widely.

INTEREST RATE RISK -- As with most funds that invest in debt securities, changes
in interest rates are one of the most important factors that could affect the
value of your investment. Rising interest rates tend to cause the prices of
debt securities (especially those with longer maturities) and the Fund's share
price to fall.

The concept of duration is useful in assessing the sensitivity of a fixed
income fund to interest rate movements, which are usually the main source of
risk for most fixed-income funds. Duration measures price volatility by
estimating the change in price of a debt security for a 1% change in its yield.
For example, a duration of five years means the price of a debt security will
change about 5% for every 1% change in its yield. Thus, the higher duration,
the more volatile the security.

Debt securities have a stated maturity date when the issuer must repay the
principal amount of the bond. Some debt securities, known as callable bonds,
may repay the principal earlier than the stated maturity date. Debt securities
are most likely to be called when interest rates are falling because the issuer
can refinance at a lower rate.

Rising interest rates may also cause investors to pay off mortgage-backed and
asset-backed securities later than anticipated, forcing the Fund to keep its
money invested at lower rates. Falling interest rates, however, generally cause
investors to pay off mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities earlier than
expected, forcing the Fund to reinvest the money at a lower interest rate.

Mutual funds that invest in debt securities have no real maturity. Instead,
they calculate their weighted average maturity. This number is an average of
the effective or anticipated maturity of each debt security held by the mutual
fund, with the maturity of each security weighted by the percentage of its
assets of the mutual fund it represents.

CREDIT RISK -- The credit rating or financial condition of an issuer may affect
the value of a debt security. Generally, the lower the quality rating of a
security, the greater the risk that the issuer will fail to pay interest fully
and return principal in a timely manner. If an issuer defaults or becomes
unable to honor its financial obligations, the security may lose some or all of
its value. The issuer of an investment-grade security is more likely to pay
interest and repay principal than an issuer of a lower rated bond. Adverse
economic conditions or changing circumstances, however, may weaken the capacity
of the issuer to pay interest and repay principal.

Although the Fund's U.S. government securities are considered to be among the
safest investments, they are not guaranteed against price movements due to
changing interest rates. Obligations issued by some U.S. government agencies
are backed by the U.S. Treasury, while others are backed solely by the ability
of the agency to borrow from the U.S. Treasury or by the government sponsored
agency's own resources. As a result, investments in securities issued by
government sponsored agencies that are not backed by the U.S. Treasury are
subject to higher credit risk than those that are.

High yield, or "junk," bonds are highly speculative securities that are usually
issued by smaller less credit worthy and/or highly leveraged (indebted)
companies. Compared with investment-grade bonds, high yield bonds carry a
greater degree of risk and are less likely to make payments of interest and
principal. Market developments and the financial and business conditions of the
corporation issuing these securities influences their price and liquidity more
than changes in interest rates, when compared to investment-grade debt securities.
Insufficient liquidity in the junk bond market may make it more difficult to dispose
of junk bonds and may cause the Fund to experience sudden and substantial price
declines. A lack of reliable, objective data or market quotations may make it more
difficult to value junk bonds accurately.

Bar Chart and Performance Table, Heading rr_BarChartAndPerformanceTableHeading PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
Performance, Narrative rr_PerformanceNarrativeTextBlock 
The bar chart and the performance table below illustrate the risks and
volatility of an investment in the Fund by showing changes in the Fund's
performance from year to year and by showing how the Fund's average annual
total returns for 1 and 5 years and since inception compare with those of a
broad measure of market performance.

The performance information provided includes the returns of Institutional
Class Shares for periods prior to August 28, 2008. Institutional Class Shares
of the Fund are offered in a separate prospectus. Institutional Class Shares
would have substantially similar performance as Class A Shares because the
shares are invested in the same portfolio of securities and the annual returns
would differ only to the extent that the expenses of Class A Shares are higher
than the expenses of the Institutional Class Shares and, therefore, returns for
the Class A Shares would be lower than those of the Institutional Class Shares.
Institutional Class Shares performance presented has been adjusted to reflect
the Distribution (12b-1) fees and, for the performance table, the Maximum Sales
Charge (Load), applicable to Class A Shares.

Institutional Class Shares first became available on April 25, 2008, when the
Fund succeeded to the assets and operations of a common trust fund that was
managed by The Frost National Bank (the "Predecessor Fund"). The performance
information provided includes the returns of the Predecessor Fund for periods
prior to April 25, 2008.  Because the Predecessor Fund was not a registered
mutual fund, it was not subject to the same investment and tax restrictions as
the Fund; if it had been, the Predecessor Fund's performance may have been
lower. Although the Predecessor Fund commenced operations prior to the periods
shown, the earliest date for which its performance can be calculated applying
the relevant performance standards is May 31, 2002 ("Performance Start Date").

The bar chart figures do not include sales charges that may have been paid when
investors bought and sold Class A Shares of the Fund. If sales charges were
included, the returns would be lower. Of course, the Fund's past performance
(before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will
perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the
Fund's website at www.frostbank.com or by calling 1-877-71-FROST.

This table compares the Fund's Class A Shares' average annual total returns for
the periods ended December 31, 2010 to those of the Barclays Capital Municipal
Bond Index. After-tax returns cannot be calculated for periods before the
Fund's registration as a mutual fund and they are, therefore, unavailable for
the period since the Performance Start Date.

After-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual
federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and

Returns after taxes on distributions and sale of Fund shares may be higher than
before-tax returns when a net capital loss occurs upon the redemption of Fund
shares.
