|---|---|
| Credit Default Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Credit/Default Risk. An issuer or guarantor of fixed income securities or instruments held by the Fund (which may have low credit ratings) may default on its obligation to pay interest and repay principal or default on any other obligation. Additionally, the credit quality of securities or instruments may deteriorate rapidly, which may impair the Fund’s liquidity and cause significant deterioration in net asset value (“NAV”). These risks are heightened in market environments where interest rates are rising as well as in connection with the Fund’s investments in non-investment grade fixed income securities. |
| Geographic and Sector Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Geographic and Sector Risk. If the Fund invests a significant portion of its total assets in certain issuers within the same state, geographic region or economic sector, an adverse economic, business, political, environmental or other development affecting that state, region or sector may affect the value of the Fund’s investments more than if its investments were not so focused. |
| Interest Rate Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Interest Rate Risk. When interest rates increase, fixed income securities or instruments held by the Fund will generally decline in value. Long-term fixed income securities or instruments will normally have more price volatility because of this risk than short-term fixed income securities or instruments. Changing interest rates may have unpredictable effects on the markets, may result in heightened market volatility and may detract from Fund performance. In addition, changes in monetary policy may exacerbate the risks associated with changing interest rates. Funds with longer average portfolio durations will generally be more sensitive to changes in interest rates than funds with a shorter average portfolio duration. Fluctuations in interest rates may also affect the liquidity of fixed income securities and instruments held by the Fund. |
| Large Shareholder Transactions Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Large Shareholder Transactions Risk. The Fund may experience adverse effects when certain large shareholders purchase or redeem large amounts of shares of the Fund. Such large shareholder redemptions, which may occur rapidly or unexpectedly, may cause the Fund to sell portfolio securities at times when it would not otherwise do so, which may negatively impact the Fund's NAV and liquidity. Similarly, large Fund share purchases may adversely affect the Fund's performance to the extent that the Fund is delayed in investing new cash or otherwise maintains a larger cash position than it ordinarily would. These transactions may also accelerate the realization of taxable income to shareholders if such sales of investments resulted in gains, and may also increase transaction costs. In addition, a large redemption could result in the Fund's current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, leading to an increase in the Fund's expense ratio. |
| Liquidity Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Liquidity Risk. The Fund may make investments that are illiquid or that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions. Illiquid investments may be more difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund will not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, declining prices of the securities sold, an unusually high volume of redemption requests, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests, the Fund may be forced to sell securities at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions. Liquidity risk may be the result of, among other things, the reduced number and capacity of traditional market participants to make a market in fixed income securities or the lack of an active market. The potential for liquidity risk may be magnified by a rising interest rate environment or other circumstances where investor redemptions from fixed income funds may be higher than normal, potentially causing increased supply in the market due to selling activity. Redemptions by large shareholders may have a negative impact on the Fund’s liquidity. |
| Market Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Market Risk. The value of the securities in which the Fund invests may go up or down in response to the prospects of individual companies, particular sectors, governments or countries and/or general economic conditions throughout the world due to increasingly interconnected global economies and financial markets. Events such as war, military conflict, geopolitical disputes, acts of terrorism, social or political unrest, natural disasters, recessions, inflation, rapid interest rate changes, supply chain disruptions, tariffs and other restrictions on trade, sanctions or the spread of infectious illness or other public health threats, or the threat or potential of one or more such events and developments, could also significantly impact the Fund and its investments. |
| Municipal Securities Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Municipal Securities Risk. Municipal Securities are subject to credit/default risk, interest rate risk and certain additional risks. The Fund may be more sensitive to adverse economic, business, political, environmental or other developments if it invests a substantial portion of its assets in the bonds of similar projects (such as those relating to education, health care, housing, transportation, and utilities), industrial development bonds, or in particular types of Municipal Securities (such as general obligation bonds, private activity bonds and moral obligation bonds). While interest earned on Municipal Securities is generally not subject to federal tax, any interest earned on taxable Municipal Securities is fully taxable at the federal level and may be subject to tax at the state level. |
| Non Investment Grade Fixed Income Securities Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Non-Investment Grade Fixed Income Securities Risk. Non-investment grade fixed income securities and unrated securities of comparable credit quality (commonly known as “junk bonds”) are considered speculative and are subject to the increased risk of an issuer’s inability to meet principal and interest payment obligations. These securities may be subject to greater price volatility due to such factors as specific issuer developments, interest rate sensitivity, negative perceptions of the junk bond markets generally and less liquidity. The Fund may purchase the securities of issuers that are in default. |
| Other Investment Companies Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Other Investment Companies Risk. By investing in other investment companies (including ETFs) indirectly through the Fund, investors will incur a proportionate share of the expenses of the other investment companies held by the Fund (including operating costs and investment management fees) in addition to the fees regularly borne by the Fund. In addition, the Fund will be affected by the investment policies, practices and performance of such investment companies in direct proportion to the amount of assets the Fund invests therein. To the extent the Fund invests in ETFs, the Fund will invest only in ETFs sponsored by GSAM or its affiliates, unless GSAM determines, in its sole discretion, that no affiliated ETF is available to provide the desired exposure (for example, by sector, industry, credit quality, or duration). GSAM will consider investing in an unaffiliated ETF on behalf of the Fund only where no affiliated ETF is available to provide the desired exposure. For investments in affiliated ETFs, GSAM has agreed to waive a portion of its management fees in an amount equal to any management fees it earns as the investment adviser to the affiliated ETFs. |
| State Territory Specific Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | State/Territory Specific Risk. The Fund’s investments in municipal obligations of issuers located in a particular state or U.S. territory may be adversely affected by political, economic and regulatory developments within that state or U.S. territory. Such developments may affect the financial condition of a state’s or territory’s political subdivisions, agencies, instrumentalities and public authorities and heighten the risks associated with investing in bonds issued by such parties, which could, in turn, adversely affect the Fund’s income, NAV, liquidity, and/or ability to preserve or realize capital appreciation. |
| Tax Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Tax Risk. Any proposed or actual changes in income tax rates or the tax-exempt status of interest income from Municipal Securities can significantly affect the demand for and supply, liquidity and marketability of Municipal Securities. Such changes may affect the Fund’s net asset value and ability to acquire and dispose of Municipal Securities at desirable yield and price levels. |
| Risk Lose Money [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Loss of money is a risk of 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 (“FDIC”) or any government agency. |
