Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] | NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation. The Company, through USCAN, Galileo is consolidated with USCAN and the non-controlling interest in this subsidiary is included in “non-controlling interest in subsidiary” in the equity section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets. There are two primary consolidation models in U.S. GAAP, the variable interest entity (“VIE”) and voting interest entity models. The Company’s evaluation for consolidation includes whether entities in which it has an interest or from which it receives fees are VIEs and whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of any VIEs identified in its analysis. A VIE is an entity in which either (a) the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its own activities without additional financial support or (b) the group of holders of the equity investment at risk lacks certain characteristics of a controlling financial interest. The primary beneficiary is the entity that has the obligation to absorb a majority of the expected losses or the right to receive the majority of the residual returns and consolidates the VIE on the basis of having a controlling financial interest. The Company holds variable interests in, but is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary of, certain funds it advises. The Company’s interests in these VIEs consist of the Company’s direct ownership therein and any fees earned but uncollected. In the ordinary course of business, the Company may choose to waive certain fees or assume operating expenses of the funds it advises for competitive, regulatory or contractual reasons (see Note 4 for information regarding fee waivers). The Company has not provided financial support to any of these entities outside the ordinary course of business. The Company’s risk of loss with respect to these VIEs is limited to the carrying value of its investments in, and fees receivable from, the entities. The Company does not consolidate these VIEs because it is not the primary beneficiary. The Company’s total exposure to unconsolidated VIEs, consisting of the carrying value of investment securities and receivables for fees, was $11.3 million at June 30, 2017, and $11.8 million at June 30, 2016. Since the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the funds it advises, the Company evaluated if it should consolidate under the voting interest entity model. Under the voting interest model, for legal entities other than partnerships, the usual condition for control is ownership, directly or indirectly, of more than 50 percent of the outstanding voting shares over an entity. The Company does not have control of any of the funds it advises; therefore, the Company does not consolidate any of these funds. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain amounts have been reclassified for comparative purposes. Business Combinations. Business combinations are accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. Results of operations of an acquired business are included from the date of acquisition. Management estimates the fair value of the acquired assets, including identifiable intangible assets, assumed liabilities, and non-controlling interest in the acquiree based on their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. Any excess acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred over fair value of the acquired net assets, if any, is recorded as “goodwill” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Any excess fair value of the acquired net assets over the acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred is recorded as a gain on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Cash and Cash Equivalents. Restricted Cash. Restricted cash represents cash invested in a money market account as collateral for the credit facility that is not available for general corporate use. Investments. Trading Securities. Held-to-Maturity Securities. Available-for-sale Securities. Securities The Company evaluates its available-for-sale investments for other-than-temporary decline in value on a periodic basis. This may exist when the fair value of an investment security has been below the current value for an extended period of time. When a security in the Company’s investment portfolio has an unrealized loss in fair value that is deemed to be other than temporary, the Company reduces the book value of such security to its current fair value, recognizing the credit related decline as a realized loss in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and a revised GAAP cost basis for the security is established. For available-for-sale securities with declines in value deemed other than temporary, the unrealized loss recorded net of tax in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is realized as a charge to net income. Other Investments. Equity Method Investments. Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Receivables . Property and Equipment. Leases Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. Intangible Asset. The Company determined that the non-compete agreement had a finite useful life. The Company amortized this finite-lived identifiable intangible asset on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 2 years. Amortization expense totaled $0; $41,000; and $45,000 in fiscal years 2017, 2016, and 2015 Management periodically evaluates the remaining useful lives and carrying values of intangible assets to determine whether events and circumstances indicate that a change in the useful life or impairment in value may have occurred. Indicators of impairment monitored by management include a decline in the level of managed assets, changes to contractual provisions underlying the intangible assets and reductions in underlying operating cash flows. Should there be an indication of a change in the useful life or impairment in value of the finite-lived intangible asset, the Company compares the carrying value of the asset and its related useful life to the projected discounted cash flows expected to be generated from the underlying managed assets over its remaining useful life to determine whether impairment has occurred. If the carrying value of the asset exceeds the discounted cash flows, the asset is written down to its fair value determined using discounted cash flows. Non-Controlling Interests. Treasury Stock. Stock-Based Compensation . Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes Revenue Recognition. Dividends and Interest. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date, and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Any discount between the cost and the principal amount of debt investments is amortized to interest income using the effective interest method. Both dividends and interest income are included in investment income. Advertising Costs. . Foreign Exchange. Use of Estimates. Earnings Per Share. Earnings Per Share Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Recent Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Pronouncements Adopted During the Period In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU”) 2014-15 , Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity ’ s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (“ASU 2014-15”). This update requires an entity’s management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or within one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued when applicable). When conditions or events raise substantial doubts about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, management shall disclose: i) the principal conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern; ii) management’s evaluation of the significance of those conditions or events in relation to the entity’s ability to meet its obligations; and iii) management’s plans that are intended to mitigate the conditions or events - and whether or not those plans alleviate the substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. ASU 2014-15 was effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual period and interim periods thereafter. Early application was permitted. The Company adopted this guidance in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017, with no impact on its consolidated financial statements. In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis In May 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-07, Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent) In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes The Company early adopted this guidance effective September 30, 2016, on a prospective basis. As a full reserve valuation allowance was recorded for deferred tax balances, adoption of the guidance did not result in any changes or reclassifications in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2016. No prior periods were retrospectively adjusted.

Investments in securities classified as trading are reflected as current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at their fair market value. Unrealized gains and losses on trading securities are included in earnings in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Investments in securities classified as available-for-sale, which may not be readily marketable but have readily determinable fair values, are reflected as non-current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at their fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income (loss) as a separate component of shareholders’ equity until realized. Other investments consist of equity investments in entities over which the Company is unable to exercise significant influence and which do not have readily determinable fair values. These equity investments are accounted for under the cost method of accounting and evaluated for impairment. The Company considers many factors in determining impairment, including the severity and duration of the decline in value below cost, the Company’s interest and ability to hold the security for a period of time sufficient for an anticipated recovery in value, and the financial condition and specific events related to the issuer. When an impairment of an equity security is determined to be other-than-temporary, the impairment is recognized in earnings. The following details the components of the Company’s investments recorded at fair value as of June 30, 2017, and 2016: June 30, 2017 (dollars in thousands) Cost Gains (Losses) Fair Value Trading securities 1 Mutual funds - Fixed income $ 8,884 $ 50 $ (7 ) $ 8,927 Mutual funds - Domestic equity 535 - (157 ) 378 Other 45 - (45 ) - Offshore fund 1,184 - (769 ) 415 Total trading securities $ 10,648 $ 50 $ (978 ) $ 9,720 Available-for-sale securities 2 Common stock - Domestic $ 109 $ 4 $ - $ 113 Common stock - International 191 12 - 203 Corporate debt 4 1,042 427 - 1,469 Mutual funds - Fixed income 1,148 1 (5 ) 1,144 Mutual funds - Domestic equity 394 12 - 406 Other 56 10 - 66 Total available-for-sale securities 3 $ 2,940 $ 466 $ (5 ) $ 3,401 June 30, 2016 (dollars in thousands) Cost Gains (Losses) Fair Value Trading securities 1 Mutual funds - Fixed income $ 9,284 $ 124 $ - $ 9,408 Mutual funds - Domestic equity 535 - (197 ) 338 Other 45 - (45 ) - Offshore fund 1,184 - (826 ) 358 Total trading securities $ 11,048 $ 124 $ (1,068 ) $ 10,104 Available-for-sale securities 2 Common stock - Domestic $ 109 $ 21 $ - $ 130 Common stock - International 613 16 (83 ) 546 Corporate debt 1,038 86 - 1,124 Mutual funds - Fixed income 1,226 18 (23 ) 1,221 Mutual funds - Domestic equity 394 2 - 396 Other 56 8 - 64 Total available-for-sale securities 3 $ 3,436 $ 151 $ (106 ) $ 3,481 1 Unrealized and realized gains and losses on trading securities are included in earnings in the statement of operations. 2 Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) as a separate component of shareholders’ equity until realized. 3 Net unrealized gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities gross and net of tax as of June 30, 2017, are $461 and $461, respectively, and as of June 30, 2016, are $45 and $45, respectively. 4 Corporate debt matures in 2024. The following summarizes investment income (loss) reflected in earnings for the periods presented. (dollars in thousands) Year Ended June 30, Investment Income 2017 2016 2015 Realized gains on sales of available-for-sale securities $ 31 $ 532 $ 591 Realized losses on sales of trading securities - (25 ) (1 ) Realized gains (losses) on sales of securities classified as other investments - 3 (30 ) Unrealized gains (losses) on trading securities 15 (93 ) (601 ) Realized foreign currency gains (losses) (37 ) 43 71 Other-than-temporary declines in available-for-sale securities (411 ) (259 ) (247 ) Other-than-temporary declines in securities held at cost (72 ) (258 ) - Dividend and interest income 820 542 651 Total Investment Income $ 346 $ 485 $ 434 Included in investment income were other-than temporary declines in value on available-for-sale securities of approximately $411,000; $259,000; and $247,000 in fiscal years 2017, 2016, and 2015, respectively. The impairment losses resulted from fair values of certain equity securities being lower than book value and from proposed changes to debt securities. For the year ending June 30, 2017, there were four securities with a combined cost basis of $627,000 that were written down to a combined fair value of $216,000. For the year ending June 30, 2016, there were eight securities with a combined cost basis of $702,000 that were written down to a combined fair value of $466,000. Also during the year ending June 30, 2016, another security with a cost basis of $970,000 was written down to $947,000 based on the net present value of estimated future cash flows. The impairment losses in the 2015 fiscal year resulted from issuers defaulting on scheduled payments. One security with a cost basis of $44,000 was written down to its fair value of $5,000. Two other securities, for which the common issuer has resumed interest payments, were written down to the net present value of estimated future cash flows. These securities had a cost basis of $310,000 and $1.1 million, respectively, and were written down to $234,000 and $970,000, respectively. Also included in investment income were approximately $72,000 for fiscal 2017 and $258,000 for fiscal 2016 in other-than-temporary declines in value on securities held at cost. The impairment loss resulted from the estimated values of certain securities being lower than cost. In fiscal 2017, one security held at cost with a cost basis of $72,000 was written down to zero. In fiscal 2016, three securities held at cost with a combined cost basis of $1.1 million were written down to a combined adjusted cost basis of $867,000. In making these determinations, the Company considered the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than the cost basis, financial condition and prospects of the issuers, and the Company’s ability to hold the investment until recovery. Unrealized Losses The following tables show the gross unrealized losses and fair values of available-for-sale investment securities with unrealized losses aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position .

Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, value of these products does not entail a significant degree of judgment. Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted prices in markets for which not all significant inputs are observable, directly or indirectly. Corporate debt securities valued in accordance with the evaluated price supplied by an independent service are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. Other securities categorized as Level 2 included securities valued at the mean between the last reported bid and ask quotation. Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the financial instrument. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with the investing in those securities. Because of the inherent uncertainties of valuation, the values reflected may materially differ from the values received upon actual sale of those investments. For actively traded securities, the Company values investments using the closing price of the securities on the exchange or market on which the securities principally trade. If the security is not traded on the last business day of the quarter, it is generally valued at the mean between the last bid and ask quotation. Mutual funds, which include open- and closed-end funds, exchange-traded funds, and offshore funds are valued at net asset value or closing price, as applicable. Certain corporate debt securities not traded on an exchange are valued by an independent pricing service using an evaluated quote based on such factors as institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality maturity, coupon rate, type of issuance and individual trading characteristics and other market data. As part of its independent price verification process, the Company periodically reviews the fair value provided by the pricing service using information such as transactions in these investments, broker quotes, market transactions in comparable investments, general market conditions and the issuer’s financial condition. Certain debt securities may be valued based on review of similarly structured issuances in similar jurisdictions, when possible, or based on other traded debt securities issued by the issuer. The Company also takes into consideration numerous other factors that could affect valuation such as overall market conditions, liquidity of the security and bond structure. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at their fair value as determined by the portfolio management team. The portfolio management team includes representatives from the investment, accounting and legal/compliance departments. The portfolio management team meets periodically to consider a number of factors in determining a security’s fair value, including the security’s trading volume, market values of similar class issuances, investment personnel’s judgment regarding the market experience of the issuer, financial status of the issuer, the issuer’s management, and back testing, as appropriate. The fair values may differ from what may have been used had a broader market for these securities existed. The portfolio management team reviews inputs and assumptions and reports material items to the Board of Directors. The following presents fair value measurements, as of each balance sheet date, for the major categories of U.S. Global’s investments measured at fair value on a recurring basis: June 30, 2017 Significant Significant Quoted Prices Other Unobservable Inputs (dollars in thousands) (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Total Trading securities Mutual funds - Fixed income $ 8,927 $ - $ - $ 8,927 Mutual funds - Domestic equity 378 - - 378 Other - - - - Offshore fund investment measured at net asset value 1 415 Total trading securities 9,305 - - 9,720 Available-for-sale securities Common stock - Domestic 113 - - 113 Common stock - International 203 - - 203 Corporate debt 1,469 - - 1,469 Mutual funds - Fixed income 1,144 - - 1,144 Mutual funds - Domestic equity 406 - - 406 Other 66 - - 66 Total available-for-sale securities 3,401 - - 3,401 Total $ 12,706 $ - $ - $ 13,121 June 30, 2016 Significant Significant Quoted Prices Other Unobservable Inputs (dollars in thousands) (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Total Trading securities Mutual funds - Fixed income $ 9,408 $ - $ - $ 9,408 Mutual funds - Domestic equity 338 - - 338 Other - - - - Offshore fund investment measured at net asset value 1 358 Total trading securities 9,746 - - 10,104 Available-for-sale securities Common stock - Domestic $ 130 $ - $ - $ 130 Common stock - International 546 - - 546 Corporate debt 1,124 - - 1,124 Mutual funds - Fixed income 1,221 - - 1,221 Mutual funds - Domestic equity 396 - - 396 Other 64 - - 64 Total available-for-sale securities 3,481 - - 3,481 Total $ 13,227 $ - $ - $ 13,585 1 In accordance with Subtopic 820-10, certain investments that are measured at fair value using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value amounts presented in this table are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the amounts presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2017, and June 30, 2016, 100 percent of the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value are derived from Level 1 inputs. The Company recognizes transfers between levels at the end of each quarter.

The aggregate fees waived and expenses borne by the Company for USGIF were $1.0 million; $1.3 million; and $1.3 million for the years ended June 30, 2017, 2016, and 2015, respectively. Management cannot predict the impact of future waivers due to the number of variables and the range of potential outcomes. The Company receives administrative service fees from USGIF based on the average daily net assets at an annual rate of 0.05 percent per investor class and 0.04 percent per institutional class of each fund. Prior to November 2014, the Company was compensated for administrative services at an annual rate of 0.10 percent per investor class and 0.08 percent per institutional class plus $10,000 per fund.

Dividends of $394,000; $496,000; and $800,000 were paid to holders of class A common stock in fiscal years 2017, 2016, and 2015, respectively. Dividends of $62,000; $78,000; and $124,000 were paid to holders of class C common stock in fiscal years 2017, 2016, and 2015, respectively. The monthly dividend Payment of cash dividends is within the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors and is dependent on earnings, operations, capital requirements, general financial condition of the Company and general business conditions. On a per share basis, the holders of the class C common stock and the nonvoting class A common stock participate equally in dividends as declared by the Company’s Board of Directors. Share Repurchase Plan The Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program on December 7, 2012, authorizing the Company to purchase up to $2.75 million of its outstanding common shares, as market and business conditions warrant, on the open market in compliance with Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 through December 31, 2013. On December 12, 2013, December 10, 2014, December 9, 2015, and December 6, 2016, the Board of Directors renewed the repurchase program for calendar years 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017, respectively. The total amount of shares that may be repurchased in 2017 under the renewed program is $2.75 million. The acquired shares may be used for corporate purposes, including shares issued to employees in the Company’s stock-based compensation programs. As of June 30, 2017, approximately $2.72 million remains available for repurchase under this authorization. During fiscal years 2017, 2016, and 2015, the Company repurchased 69,636; 177,998; and 95,251, respectively, of its class A shares on the open market using cash of $114,000; $313,000; and $292,000, respectively. To date, the Company has repurchased a total of 491,288 class A shares under the repurchase program using cash of $1,181,000. Other Activity The Company granted 2,400 shares of class A common stock at a weighted average fair value of $2.66 to an employee during fiscal year 2016. The Company did not grant any shares of class A common stock to employees during fiscal year 2017 or 2015. Grants vest immediately after issuance. The Company granted 3,600; 3,600; and 3,600 shares of class A common stock at a weighted average fair value of $1.66; $1.63, and $3.24 to its non-employee directors in fiscal years 2017, 2016, and 2015, respectively. Grants vest immediately after issuance. Issuances of treasury stock for grants or bonuses are accounted for using the weighted-average cost basis of the shares issued. During fiscal years 2017 and 2016, shares were issued, as described above, with a weighted-average cost basis greater than current fair value, which resulted in a combined negative adjustment to additional paid-in capital of approximately $5,000 and $43,000 for fiscal years 2017 and 2016, respectively. Shareholders of class C shares are allowed to convert to class A. During fiscal years 2017, 2016, and 2015, 180, 0, and 60 shares, respectively, were converted from class C to class A. Conversions are one class A share for one class C share and are recorded at par value. There are no restrictions or requirements to convert. Stock-based compensation In November 1989, the Board of Directors adopted the 1989 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan (“1989 Plan”), amended in December 1991, which provides for the granting of options to purchase 1,600,000 shares of the Company’s class A common stock to directors, officers and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. Options issued under the 1989 Plan vest six months from the grant date or 20 percent on the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth anniversaries of the grant date. Options issued under the 1989 Plan expire ten years after issuance. No options were granted in fiscal years 2017, 2016, or 2015. As of June 30, 2017, there were no options outstanding under the 1989 Plan. In April 1997, the Board of Directors adopted the 1997 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan (“1997 Plan”), which provides for the granting of stock appreciation rights (SARs) and/or options to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s class A common stock to directors, officers, and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. Options issued under the 1997 Plan expire ten years after issuance. No options were granted in fiscal years 2017, 2016, or 2015. As of June 30, 2017, there were 2,000 options outstanding under the 1997 Plan. The estimated fair value of options granted is amortized to expense over the options’ vesting period. The fair value of these options is estimated at the date of the grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] | NOTE 12. INCOME TAXES The Company and its non-Canadian subsidiaries file a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return. USCAN and Galileo file separate tax returns in Canada. The current applicable U.S. statutory rate for the consolidated U.S. federal income tax return is approximately 34 percent and the current applicable Canadian statutory rate for the Canadian subsidiaries is approximately 26.5 percent. Provisions for income taxes include deferred taxes for temporary differences in the bases of assets and liabilities for financial and tax purposes, resulting from the use of the liability method of accounting for income taxes. The Company has not recognized deferred income taxes on undistributed earnings of Galileo since such earnings are considered to be reinvested indefinitely. For U.S. federal income tax purposes at June 30, 2017, the Company has charitable contribution carryovers totaling approximately $147,000 with $68,000; $34,000; $19,000; $5,000; and $21,000 expiring in fiscal years 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022, respectively. The Company has U.S. federal net operating loss carryovers of $4.7 million with $2.0 million expiring in fiscal year 2035 and $2.7 million expiring in fiscal year 2036. For Canadian income tax purposes, Galileo has cumulative eligible capital carryovers of $254,000 with no expiration and net operating loss carryovers of $66,000; $120,000; $45,000; $123,000 and $7,000 expiring in fiscal 2025, 2027, 2030, 2036, and 2037, respectively. If certain changes in the Company’s ownership should occur, there could be an annual limitation on the amount of net operating loss carryovers that could be utilized. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax amount will not be realized. At June 30, 2017, and 2016, a valuation allowance of $3.3 million and $3.1 million, respectively, was included to fully reserve for net operating loss carryovers, other carryovers and book/tax differences in the balance sheet.

The guidance requires that deferred tax balances be classified as non-current in a statement of financial position. The Company adopted this guidance effective September 30, 2016, on a prospective basis. As a full reserve valuation allowance is recorded for deferred tax balances, adoption of the guidance did not result in any changes or reclassifications in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2016. No prior periods were retrospectively adjusted. |

Receivables include amounts due from the funds for those fees and out-of-pocket expenses, net of amounts payable to the funds for expense reimbursements. As of June 30, 2017, and 2016, the Company had $396,000 and $595,000, respectively, of receivables from mutual funds included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets within “receivables.” Frank Holmes, a director and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, was a trustee of USGIF until December 2015. Mr. Holmes is a director of each offshore fund and is also a director of Meridian Fund Managers Ltd., the manager of the offshore funds. The offshore clients have provided notice that they are liquidating. The liquidations are expected to be completed in September 2017.

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract] | |
Disposal Groups, Including Discontinued Operations, Disclosure [Text Block] | NOTE 17. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS In December 2015, USGIF elected a new slate of trustees to the Board of Trustees of the Funds. The Company proposed the election of new trustees and the transition of certain functions to third-party service providers with the intention of streamlining the Company’s responsibilities so it can better focus on strategic activities. The new Board of Trustees of USGIF adopted several new service agreements. As anticipated, effective December 10, 2015, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, U.S. Global Brokerage, Inc., ceased to be the distributor for USGIF and no longer receives distribution fees and shareholder services fees from USGIF. The Company’s portion of one-time transition expenses, recorded in the quarter ended December 31, 2015, was approximately $290,000. Due to this transition, the Company is no longer responsible for paying certain distribution and shareholder servicing related expenses and is reimbursed for certain distribution expenses from the new distributor for USGIF. As a result of this change, the Company filed Form BDW, the Uniform Request Withdrawal From Broker-Dealer Registration, with FINRA, which was approved in February 2016. This constituted a strategic shift that has started to have, and will continue to have, a major effect on the Company’s operating revenues and expenses. The distribution and shareholder services revenues and the expenses associated with certain distribution operations for USGIF are reflected as discontinued operations in the statement of operations and are, therefore, excluded from continuing operations results. These revenues and expenses were previously included in the investment management services segment. The discontinued operations did not have depreciation, amortization, capital expenditures or significant non-cash operating and investing items. There were no assets and liabilities related to distribution discontinued operations at June 30, 2017, or June 30, 2016: The components of loss from discontinued operations of the distributor were as follows: Year Ended June 30, (dollars in thousands) 2017 2016 2015 Revenues Distribution fees $ - $ 425 $ 1,408 Shareholder services fees - 183 630 - 608 2,038 Expenses Employee compensation and benefits - 188 491 General and administrative - 77 152 Platform fees - 347 1,201 Advertising - 14 275 - 626 2,119 Loss from discontinued operations of distributor before income taxes - (18 ) (81 ) Tax benefit - - - Loss from discontinued operations of distributor $ - $ (18 ) $ (81 ) Through December 9, 2015, USGIF paid the Company a distribution fee at an annual rate of 0.25 percent of the average daily net assets of the investor class of each of the equity funds. Effective December 10, 2015, the Company, through U.S. Global Brokerage, Inc., ceased to be the distributor for USGIF and no longer receives distribution fees directly from the Funds. In addition, through December 9, 2015, the Company received shareholder servicing fees from USGIF based on the value of Fund assets held through broker-dealer platforms. Effective December 10, 2015, the Company ceased to be the distributor for USGIF and no longer receives shareholder services fees from the Funds. Due to this transition, the Company is no longer responsible for paying the platform fees for the USGIF equity funds and is reimbursed for certain distribution expenses from the new distributor for USGIF. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block] | NOTE 18. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS The Company continuously reviews all investor, employee, and vendor complaints and pending or threatened litigation. The likelihood that a loss contingency exists is evaluated through consultation with legal counsel, and a loss contingency is recorded if probable and reasonably estimable. During the normal course of business, the Company may be subject to claims, legal proceedings, and other contingencies. These matters are subject to various uncertainties, and it is possible that some of these matters may be resolved unfavorably. The Company establishes accruals for matters for which the outcome is probable and can be reasonably estimated. Management believes that any liability in excess of these accruals upon the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company. The Board of Directors has authorized a monthly dividend of $0.0025 per share from July 2017 through September 2017, at which time it will be considered for continuation by the Board of Directors. Payment of cash dividends is within the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors and is dependent on earnings, operations, capital requirements, general financial condition of the Company and general business conditions. The total amount of cash dividends to be paid to class A and class C shareholders from July 2017 to September 2017 will be approximately $114,000. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Principles of Consolidation. The Company, through USCAN, Galileo is consolidated with USCAN and the non-controlling interest in this subsidiary is included in “non-controlling interest in subsidiary” in the equity section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets. There are two primary consolidation models in U.S. GAAP, the variable interest entity (“VIE”) and voting interest entity models. The Company’s evaluation for consolidation includes whether entities in which it has an interest or from which it receives fees are VIEs and whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of any VIEs identified in its analysis. A VIE is an entity in which either (a) the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its own activities without additional financial support or (b) the group of holders of the equity investment at risk lacks certain characteristics of a controlling financial interest. The primary beneficiary is the entity that has the obligation to absorb a majority of the expected losses or the right to receive the majority of the residual returns and consolidates the VIE on the basis of having a controlling financial interest. The Company holds variable interests in, but is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary of, certain funds it advises. The Company’s interests in these VIEs consist of the Company’s direct ownership therein and any fees earned but uncollected. In the ordinary course of business, the Company may choose to waive certain fees or assume operating expenses of the funds it advises for competitive, regulatory or contractual reasons (see Note 4 for information regarding fee waivers). The Company has not provided financial support to any of these entities outside the ordinary course of business. The Company’s risk of loss with respect to these VIEs is limited to the carrying value of its investments in, and fees receivable from, the entities. The Company does not consolidate these VIEs because it is not the primary beneficiary. The Company’s total exposure to unconsolidated VIEs, consisting of the carrying value of investment securities and receivables for fees, was $11.3 million at June 30, 2017, and $11.8 million at June 30, 2016. Since the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the funds it advises, the Company evaluated if it should consolidate under the voting interest entity model. Under the voting interest model, for legal entities other than partnerships, the usual condition for control is ownership, directly or indirectly, of more than 50 percent of the outstanding voting shares over an entity. The Company does not have control of any of the funds it advises; therefore, the Company does not consolidate any of these funds. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain amounts have been reclassified for comparative purposes. |
Business Combinations Policy [Policy Text Block] | Business Combinations. Business combinations are accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. Results of operations of an acquired business are included from the date of acquisition.

Investment, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Investments. Trading Securities. Held-to-Maturity Securities. Available-for-sale Securities. Securities The Company evaluates its available-for-sale investments for other-than-temporary decline in value on a periodic basis. This may exist when the fair value of an investment security has been below the current value for an extended period of time. When a security in the Company’s investment portfolio has an unrealized loss in fair value that is deemed to be other than temporary, the Company reduces the book value of such security to its current fair value, recognizing the credit related decline as a realized loss in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and a revised GAAP cost basis for the security is established. For available-for-sale securities with declines in value deemed other than temporary, the unrealized loss recorded net of tax in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is realized as a charge to net income.

Intangible Assets, Finite-Lived, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Intangible Asset. The Company determined that the non-compete agreement had a finite useful life. The Company amortized this finite-lived identifiable intangible asset on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 2 years. Amortization expense totaled $0; $41,000; and $45,000 in fiscal years 2017, 2016, and 2015 Management periodically evaluates the remaining useful lives and carrying values of intangible assets to determine whether events and circumstances indicate that a change in the useful life or impairment in value may have occurred. Indicators of impairment monitored by management include a decline in the level of managed assets, changes to contractual provisions underlying the intangible assets and reductions in underlying operating cash flows. Should there be an indication of a change in the useful life or impairment in value of the finite-lived intangible asset, the Company compares the carrying value of the asset and its related useful life to the projected discounted cash flows expected to be generated from the underlying managed assets over its remaining useful life to determine whether impairment has occurred. If the carrying value of the asset exceeds the discounted cash flows, the asset is written down to its fair value determined using discounted cash flows. |
