| Material Fund Change [Text Block] | How did the Fund perform? For the period of October 1, 2023 to September 30, 2024, the Fund underperformed its benchmark, the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index. What key factors affected the Fund's performance? Shorter-than-benchmark duration was the primary detractor from performance relative to the benchmark. Outside of duration effects, security selection in mortgages, namely the exclusion of Agency mortgages, also detracted. Security selection in ABS, corporate bonds and out-of-benchmark positioning in CLOs partially offset these effects. |

| Material Fund Change [Text Block] | How did the Fund perform? For the year ended September 30, 2024, the Fund returned 7.14%, underperforming the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index (Broad based benchmark) which returned 11.57% and underperforming the Bloomberg US 1-3 Yr Bond Index (Fund's benchmark) which returned 8.12%. What key factors affected the Fund's performance? Strong security selection and overweight holding in ABS were the primary contributors to returns relative to the benchmark. Security selection in non-Agency MBS also boosted relative performance. Shorter-than-benchmark duration was a partial detractor, namely via underweight positioning in the three year Treasury. |
