Mar. 31, 2026 |
|---|---|
| Changing Distribution Levels Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Changing distribution levels risk. The fund may cease or reduce the level of its distribution if income or dividends paid from its investments declines. |
| Credit And Counterparty Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Credit and counterparty risk. The issuer or guarantor of a fixed-income security or a borrower of fund securities may not make timely payments or otherwise honor its obligations. U.S. government securities are subject to varying degrees of credit risk depending upon the nature of their support. A downgrade or default affecting any of the fund’s securities could affect the fund’s performance. |
| Economic And Market Events Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Economic and market events risk. Events in the U.S. and global financial markets, including actions taken by the U.S. Federal Reserve or foreign central banks to stimulate or stabilize economic growth, may at times result in unusually high market volatility, which could negatively impact performance. Reduced liquidity in credit and fixed-income markets could adversely affect issuers worldwide. Banks and financial services companies could suffer losses if interest rates rise or economic conditions deteriorate. |
| Fixed Income Securities Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Fixed-income securities risk. A rise in interest rates typically causes bond prices to fall. The longer the average maturity or duration of the bonds held by a fund, the more sensitive it will likely be to interest-rate fluctuations. An issuer may not make all interest payments or repay all or any of the principal borrowed. Changes in a security’s credit quality may adversely affect fund performance. |
| Interest Rate Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Interest rate risk. A sharp and unexpected rise in interest rates could impair the fund’s ability to maintain a stable net asset value. A low interest rate environment may prevent the fund from providing a positive yield to shareholders or paying fund expenses out of fund assets and could impair the fund’s ability to maintain a stable net asset value. |
| Liquidity Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Liquidity risk. The extent (if at all) to which a security may be sold without negatively impacting its market value may be impaired by reduced market activity or participation, legal restrictions, or other economic and market impediments. Liquidity risk may be magnified in rising interest rate environments due to higher than normal redemption rates. Widespread selling of fixed-income securities to satisfy redemptions during periods of reduced demand may adversely impact the price or salability of such securities. Periods of heavy redemption could cause the fund to sell assets at a loss or depressed value, which could negatively affect performance. Redemption risk is heightened during periods of declining or illiquid markets. |
| Operational And Cybersecurity Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Operational and cybersecurity risk. Cybersecurity breaches may allow an unauthorized party to gain access to fund assets, customer data, or proprietary information, or cause a fund or its service providers to suffer data corruption or lose operational functionality. Similar incidents affecting issuers of a fund’s securities may negatively impact performance. Operational risk may arise from human error, error by third parties, communication errors, or technology failures, among other causes. |
| Redemption Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Redemption risk. The fund may experience periods of heavy redemptions that could cause it to liquidate its assets at inopportune times or at a loss or depressed value, particularly during periods of declining or illiquid markets, and that could affect the fund’s ability to maintain a $1.00 share price. Redemption risk is greater to the extent that the fund has investors with large shareholdings, short investment horizons or unpredictable cash flow needs. The redemption by one or more large shareholders of their holdings in the fund could cause the remaining shareholders in the fund to lose money. In addition, the fund may suspend redemptions and liquidate the fund when permitted by applicable regulations. |
| Tax Diversification Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Tax diversification risk. The fund operates as a “government money market fund” in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (a “Government Fund”). Additionally, the fund intends to meet the diversification requirements that are applicable to insurance company separate accounts under Subchapter L of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Diversification Requirements”). To satisfy the Diversification Requirements applicable to variable annuity contracts, the value of the assets of the fund invested in securities issued by the United States government must remain below specified thresholds. For these purposes, each United States government agency or instrumentality is treated as a separate issuer (subject to special rules applicable to government agency-issued mortgage-backed securities). Under a Notice issued by the Internal Revenue Service in 2016, pending amendment of the applicable regulations, government money market funds may rely upon an alternative diversification standard.A failure to satisfy the Diversification Requirements could have significant adverse tax consequences for variable annuity contract owners whose contract values are determined by investment in the fund. |
| US Government Agency Obligations Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | U.S. government agency obligations risk. The fund invests in obligations issued by agencies and instrumentalities of the U.S. government. Government-sponsored entities such as Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) and the Federal Home Loan Banks, although chartered or sponsored by Congress, are not funded by congressional appropriations and the debt securities that they issue are neither guaranteed nor issued by the U.S. government. Such debt securities are subject to the risk of default on the payment of interest and/or principal, similar to the debt securities of private issuers. The maximum potential liability of the issuers of some U.S. government obligations may greatly exceed their current resources, including any legal right to support from the U.S. government. Although the U.S. government has provided financial support to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in the past, there can be no assurance that it will support these or other government-sponsored entities in the future. |
| US Treasury Obligations Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | U.S. Treasury obligations risk. The market value of direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury may vary due to changes in interest rates. In addition, changes to the financial condition or credit rating of the U.S. government may cause the value of the fund’s investments in obligations issued by the U.S. Treasury to decline. |
| Risk Lose Money [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | The fund is subject to risks, and you could lose money by investing in the fund. |
| Risk Not Insured Depository Institution [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | An investment in the fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. |
| Risk Money Market Fund May Not Preserve Dollar [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it cannot guarantee it will do so. |
| Risk Money Market Fund Sponsor May Not Provide Support [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | The fund’s sponsor has no legal obligation to provide financial support to the fund, and you should not expect that the sponsor will provide financial support to the fund at any time. |
