Portfolio Turnover [Text Block] rr_PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commission, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transactions 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. Because the Fund is newly organized, no portfolio turnover figures are available.

Other Expenses, New Fund, Based on Estimates [Text] rr_OtherExpensesNewFundBasedOnEstimates “Other Expenses” are based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year.

Expense Example Narrative [Text Block] rr_ExpenseExampleNarrativeTextBlock

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 below and then redeem all of your shares at the end of these periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same (taking into account the contractual fee waiver). Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

Strategy [Heading] rr_StrategyHeading Principal Investment Strategies
Strategy Narrative [Text Block] rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock

The Fund may invest in debt instruments of any credit rating, and there are no limits on the Fund’s investments in high-yield (“junk”) bonds. The Fund defines credit instruments broadly to include any debt instrument, including corporate and sovereign bonds, leveraged loans (or bank loans), municipal securities, and securitized instruments (including mortgage- and asset-backed securities). The Fund, under normal market circumstances invests at least 80% of its net assets (including any borrowing for investment purposes) in credit instruments and derivative instruments that are linked to, or provide investment exposure to, credit instruments, including short exposure. There is no limit on the Fund’s investments in securities issued by foreign issuers, including issuers in emerging markets, although the Fund’s overall net exposure to non-U.S. currencies through

direct holdings and derivatives is normally limited to 25% of its net assets. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its net assets in long and short positions in equity securities, including common and preferred stocks, convertible securities, warrants, and other equity securities in addition to derivatives that provide exposure to equity securities.

 

High yield instruments are rated below investment grade (BB and lower, or an equivalent rating), and tend to provide high income in an effort to compensate investors for their higher risk of default, which is the failure to make required interest or principal payments. High yield instruments in which the Fund may invest include bonds, leveraged loans, and securities in default. The Fund may invest in debt instruments of any maturity or duration, although the Fund expects to normally maintain an effective duration between 2 and 8 years. Duration is an estimate of a security’s (or portfolio of securities) sensitivity to changes in prevailing interest rates, with securities with a higher duration generally tending to be more sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates.

 

The Adviser employs sub-advisers for some asset classes, or segments of specific asset classes, and allocates the Fund’s portfolio investments on an opportunistic basis intended to achieve attractive relative returns among asset classes and investments. The Adviser’s investment process consists of fundamental research as well as the use of proprietary quantitative models that evaluate a universe of securities based on factors such as credit quality, maturity, valuation, revenues, earnings, capital discipline, financial leverage and volatility.

 

The Fund’s investment approach provides the Fund the flexibility to invest across a wide variety of global credit instruments without constraints to particular benchmarks, asset classes, or sectors. Through this flexibility, and the use of active risk management and hedging positions, the Fund attempts to benefit from the upsides of the fixed income credit markets while avoiding some of the downsides over a full market cycle. The Fund is “non-diversified,” meaning it may invest a greater portion of its assets in fewer issuers than is permissible for a “diversified” fund.

 

When deciding whether to adjust allocations among the various sectors and asset classes (such as high yield corporate bonds, mortgage- and asset-backed securities, international bonds, sovereign bonds, municipal securities, and leveraged loans) or duration (which measures the Fund’s price sensitivity to interest rate changes), the Adviser may consider factors such as expected interest rate movements and currency valuations, the outlook for inflation and the economy, and the yield advantage and potential for increased returns that lower rated bonds may offer over investment-grade bonds.

 

The Fund may purchase or sell mortgage-backed securities on a delayed delivery or forward commitment basis through the “to-be-announced” (TBA) market. With TBA transactions, the particular securities to be delivered are not identified at the trade date but the delivered securities must meet specified terms and standards.

 

Bank loans, also known as leveraged loans, represent amounts borrowed by companies or other entities from banks and other lenders. These loans have floating interest rates that reset periodically (typically quarterly or monthly) and are often rated below investment grade (sometimes referred to as “junk bonds”). In many cases, the borrowing companies have significantly more debt than equity and the loans have been issued in connection with recapitalizations, acquisitions, leveraged buyouts, or refinancings. Leveraged loans may be acquired directly through an agent acting on behalf of the lenders participating in the loan, as an assignment from another lender who holds a direct interest in the loan, or as a participation interest in another lender’s portion of the loan.

 

While most assets are typically invested in bonds and other debt instruments, the Fund also may use credit default swaps (on both indexes and specific bonds or issuers), total return swaps (on both indexes and specific bonds or issuers), interest rate futures, interest rate swaps, forward currency exchange contracts, and options on such instruments. The Fund intends to buy or sells credit default and total return swaps in order to generate returns, adjust the Fund’s overall credit quality, or protect the value of certain portfolio holdings, as well as to seek to profit from expected deterioration in the credit quality of an issuer or the widening of credit spreads. Total return swaps may also be used in order to obtain a short position with respect to a particular instrument. Interest rate futures and interest rate swaps are primarily used to manage the Fund’s exposure to interest rate changes and to seek to limit overall volatility by adjusting the portfolio’s duration and extending or shortening the overall maturity of the Fund. Forward currency exchange contracts may be used to limit overall volatility by protecting the Fund’s non-U.S. dollar-denominated holdings from adverse currency movements relative to the U.S. dollar or to generate returns by

gaining long or short exposure to certain currencies expected to increase or decrease in value relative to other currencies. In addition, the Fund may take a short position in a currency, which means that the Fund could sell a currency in excess of its assets denominated in that currency (or the fund might sell a currency even if it doesn’t own any assets denominated in the currency).

Risk Narrative [Text Block] rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock

All investments carry a certain amount of risk and there is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment goal. The Adviser uses the Fund’s principal investment strategies and other investment strategies to seek to achieve the Fund’s investment goal. Investment decisions made by the Adviser in using these strategies may not produce the returns expected by the Adviser, may cause the Fund’s shares to lose value or may cause the Fund to underperform other funds with a similar investment goal. The shares offered by this Prospectus are not deposits or obligations of any bank, are not endorsed or guaranteed by any bank and are not insured or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board or any other government agency. You could lose all or a part of your investment in the Fund.

 

The following are the principal risks of investing in the Fund. Please see “Additional Information About the Fund” for a detailed discussion of these risks and other factors you should carefully consider before deciding to invest in the Fund.

 

Credit Risk — Credit risk refers to the possibility that the issuer of a security will not be able to make payments of interest and principal when due. Changes in an issuer’s credit rating or the market’s perception of an issuer’s creditworthiness may also affect the value of the Fund’s investment in that issuer.

 

Fixed Income Securities Risk Fixed income securities are subject to a number of risks, including interest rate risk, credit risk, and the risks associated with a lack of liquidity in the fixed income market. In addition, the value of fixed income securities can be subject to volatility and losses resulting from changes or perceived changes to the issuer, as well as industry, market, economic, political, regulatory, and geopolitical developments, including pandemics, epidemics and other conditions, particularly during times of unusual or adverse market or political events. Certain types of fixed income securities may be more sensitive to such conditions.

 

High-Yield, Lower-Grade Debt Securities Risk — High-yield and lower-grade debt securities (sometimes referred to as “junk bonds”) are high risk investments and may cause principal and investment losses to the Fund to a greater extent than investment grade debt securities. Such debt securities may be considered to be speculative and may be more vulnerable to the risks associated with fixed income securities, particularly price volatility and market conditions attributable to adverse economic or political developments.

 

Bank Loans Risk — Investments in bank loans expose the Fund to additional risks beyond those normally associated with more traditional debt instruments. The Fund’s ability to receive payments in connection with the loan depends primarily on the financial condition of the borrower and whether or not a loan is secured by collateral, although there is no assurance that the collateral securing a loan will be sufficient to satisfy the loan obligation. In addition, bank loans often have contractual restrictions on resale, which can delay the sale and adversely impact the sale price. Transactions involving bank loans may have significantly longer settlement periods than more traditional investments (settlement can take longer than 7 days) and often involve borrowers whose financial condition is troubled or highly leveraged, which increases the risk that the Fund may not receive its proceeds in a timely manner or that the Fund may incur losses in order to pay redemption proceeds to its shareholders. In addition, loans are not registered under the federal securities laws like stocks and bonds, so investors in loans have less protection against improper practices than investors in registered securities.

 

Prepayments and Extensions — The Fund is subject to prepayment risks because the principal on mortgage-backed securities, other asset-backed securities, or any debt instrument with an embedded call option may be prepaid at any time, which could reduce the security’s yield and market value. The rate of prepayments tends to increase as interest rates fall, which could cause the average maturity of the portfolio to shorten. Extension risk may result from a rise in interest rates, which tends to make mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, and other callable debt instruments more volatile.

International Investing — Investing in the securities of non-U.S. issuers involves special risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. issuers. Non-U.S. securities tend to be more volatile and have lower overall liquidity than investments in U.S. securities and may lose value because of adverse local, political, social, or economic developments overseas, or due to changes in the exchange rates between foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar. In addition, investments outside the U.S. are subject to settlement practices and regulatory and financial reporting standards that differ from those of the U.S. The risks of investing outside the U.S. are heightened for any investments in emerging markets, which are susceptible to greater volatility than investments in developed markets.

 

TBAs and Dollar Rolls — Although the securities that are delivered in TBA transactions must meet certain standards, there is a risk that the actual securities received by the Fund may be less favorable than what was anticipated when entering into the transaction. TBA transactions are collateralized but they still involve the risk that a counterparty will fail to deliver the security, exposing the f Fund to potential losses. Whether or not the Fund takes delivery of the securities at the termination date of a TBA transaction, it will nonetheless be exposed to changes in the value of the underlying investments during the term of the agreement. Also, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate and transaction costs are increased when the Fund enters into dollar roll transactions.

 

Leverage — Establishing short positions and investing in futures contracts, options and swaps and other derivative instruments could give rise to economic leverage. These transactions may expose the Fund to greater risk and increase its costs. The use of leverage may cause the Fund to liquidate portfolio holdings when it may not be advantageous to do so to satisfy its obligations or to meet any required asset segregation requirements. Increases and decreases in the value of the Fund’s portfolio will be magnified when the Fund uses leverage.

 

Short Positions — A short position in a derivative instrument involves the risk of a theoretically unlimited increase in the value of the underlying instrument, which could cause the Fund to suffer a (potentially unlimited) loss. Short sales may also involve transaction and financing costs that will reduce potential fund gains and increase potential fund losses.

 

Hedging — The Fund’s attempts at hedging and taking long and short positions in currencies may not be successful and could cause the Fund to lose money or fail to get the benefit of a gain on a hedged position. If expected changes to securities prices, interest rates, currency values and exchange rates, or the creditworthiness of an issuer are not accurately predicted, the Fund could be in a worse position than if it had not entered into such transactions.

Active Management — The Fund’s overall investment program and holdings selected by the Fund’s investment adviser or sub-adviser may underperform the broad markets, relevant indices, or other funds with similar objectives and investment strategies.

Developing Market Countries Risk — The Fund’s investments in developing market countries are subject to all of the risks of foreign investing generally, and have additional heightened risks due to a lack of established legal, political, business and social frameworks to support securities markets.

 

High Portfolio Turnover Risk — The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading of its portfolio securities. High portfolio turnover (more than 100%) may result in increased transaction costs to the Fund, including brokerage commissions, dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of the securities and on reinvestment in other securities. The sale of Fund portfolio securities may result in the realization and/or distribution to shareholders of higher capital gains or losses as compared to a fund with less active trading policies. These effects of higher than normal portfolio turnover may adversely affect Fund performance.

 

Non-Diversification Risk — The Fund is non-diversified, which generally means that it may invest a greater percentage of its total assets in the securities of fewer issuers than a “diversified” fund. This increases the risk that a change in the value of any one investment held by the Fund could affect the overall value of the Fund more than it would affect that of a diversified fund holding a greater number of investments. Accordingly, the Fund’s value will likely be more volatile than the value of more diversified funds.

Exchange-Traded Funds Risk — Exchange-traded funds or ETFs are subject to many of the same risks associated with individual stocks, including market risk where the market as a whole, or the specific sector in which an ETF invests, may decline.

 

Interest Rate Risk — Interest rate risk is the risk of losses attributable to changes in interest rates. In general, when interest rates rise, debt security prices tend to fall. The opposite is also generally true, debt security prices tend to rise when interest rates fall. In general, securities with longer maturities are more sensitive to these interest rate changes.

 

LIBOR Risk — Many financial instruments, financings or other transactions to which the Fund may be a party use or may use a floating rate based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority, the United Kingdom’s financial regulatory body, announced that after 2021 it will cease its active encouragement of banks to provide the quotations needed to sustain LIBOR. The future publication and utilization of LIBOR, and the nature of any replacement rate, is uncertain. Therefore, the potential effect of a transition away from LIBOR on the Fund or the financial instruments in which the Fund invests cannot yet be determined.

 

Liquidity Risk — Liquidity risk means the risk that the Fund could not meet requests to redeem shares without significant dilution of remaining investors’ interests. Liquidity risk may also include the risk that it may be difficult or impossible to sell certain positions within an acceptable timeframe or at an acceptable price.

 

Quantitative Investment Strategy Risk —The Fund may be managed using a quantitative process. The impact of risk and quantitative metrics on a security’s performance can be difficult to predict, and securities that previously possessed certain desirable characteristics may not continue to demonstrate those same characteristics in the future. There can be no assurance that this quantitative process will perform as anticipated or enable the Fund to achieve its investment objective.

 

U.S. Government Obligations Risk U.S. Government securities that are not direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury have more credit risk than securities directly supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.

 

Inflation-Protected Securities Risk The value of an inflation-protected debt security generally will fall when real interest rates rise.

 

Mortgage-Backed and Asset-Backed Securities Risk Securities representing interests in “pools” of mortgages or other assets are subject to various risks, including prepayment and contraction risk, risk of default of the underlying mortgage or assets and delinquencies and losses of the underlying mortgage or assets.

 

Municipal Securities Risk Prices of municipal securities rise and fall in response to interest rate changes and local political and economic factors may adversely affect the value and liquidity of these securities. In addition, the Fund’s investments in municipal securities are subject to the risks associated with a lack of liquidity in the municipal bond market.

 

Convertible Securities Risk Convertible securities are subject to interest rate risk, the risk that the issuer will not be able to pay interest or dividend when due, the risk that their market value may change based on changes to the issuer’s credit ratings or the market’s perception of the issuer’s creditworthiness, and the risk that their value may not increase or decrease as rapidly as the underlying common stock.

 

Common and Preferred Stock Risk Stock markets are volatile and can decline significantly in response to real or perceived changes to the issuer, industry, market, economic, political, regulatory, geopolitical, pandemics and epidemics and other conditions. The value of an equity security can decline significantly in response to these conditions. Preferred stocks generally have a specified dividend rate and rank after bonds and before common stocks in their claim on income for dividend payments and on assets should the company be liquidated. After other claims are satisfied, common stockholders participate in company profits on a pro-rata basis and profits may be paid out in dividends or reinvested in the company to help it grow. 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.

 

Foreign Market Risk — Exposure to foreign markets through issuers or currencies can involve additional risks relating to market, economic, political, regulatory, geopolitical, social, pandemics and epidemics or other conditions. International trade tensions involving certain countries and their trading counterparties may arise from time to time which can result in trade tariffs, embargoes, trade limitations, trade wars and other negative consequences. Such actions and consequences may ultimately result in a significant reduction in international trade, an oversupply of certain manufactured goods, devaluations of existing inventories and potentially the failure of

individual companies and/or large segments of certain country’s export industry with a potentially severe negative impact to the Fund. In addition, the securities of foreign companies also may be subject to the imposition of economic sanctions or other government restrictions. The risks of foreign investments are increased in emerging markets which may experience hyperinflation and have far lower trading volumes and less liquidity than developed markets. Currency exchange rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. Such fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates can affect the value of the Fund’s portfolio.

 

Derivatives Risk — Derivatives are subject to a number of risks, including changes in the market price of the underlying securities, credit risk with respect to the counterparty to the derivative instruments and the risk of loss due to changes in interest rates. The use of certain derivatives may also have a leveraging effect, which may increase the Fund’s sensitivity to adverse market movements and may exaggerate a loss.

 

Swaps Risk — Swap agreements are derivative instruments that can be individually negotiated and structured to address exposure to a variety of different market factors or types of investments, including a specified reference security, basket of securities, securities market index or index component. Swaps may increase or decrease the Fund’s exposure to long- or short-term interest rates, foreign currency values, mortgage securities, corporate borrowing rates, securities market indexes, or other factors such as security prices or inflation rates. Swaps may be leveraged and are subject to illiquidity risk, counterparty risk, credit risk and valuation risk. Because the Fund may not reasonably expect to be able to sell or dispose of a swap in current market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing its market value, certain swaps may be considered to be illiquid. Also, the Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap counterparty. In addition, some swaps may be complex and difficult to value.
