Risk [Text Block]

Common Stock Risk. Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Factors such as domestic economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, and political events affect the securities markets. When the value of the Fund's investments goes down, your investment in the Fund decreases in value and you could lose money.

General Risks. Domestic economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, and political events are among the factors affecting the securities markets in which the Fund invests. There is the risk that these and other factors may adversely affect the Fund's performance. You could lose money by investing in the Fund.

 

Additionally, unexpected local, regional or global events, such as war; acts of terrorism; financial, political or social disruptions; natural, environmental or man-made disasters; the spread of infectious illnesses or other public health issues (such as COVID-19); and recessions and depressions could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and may impair market liquidity. Such events can cause investor fear, which can adversely affect the economies of nations, regions and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen.

Growth Investing Risk. If the Sub-Advisor's perceptions of a company's growth potential are wrong, the securities purchased may not perform as expected, reducing the Fund's return.

Advisors Capital Small Cap Blend Fund | Limited History of Operations Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Limited History of Operations Risk. The Fund is recently formed. Accordingly, investors in the Fund bear the risk that the Fund may not be successful in implementing its investment strategy, may not employ a successful investment strategy, or may fail to attract sufficient assets to realize economies of scale, any of which could result in the Fund being liquidated at any time without shareholder approval and at a time that may not be favorable for all shareholders. Such liquidation could have negative tax consequences.

Advisors Capital Small Cap Blend Fund | Management Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]

Management Risk. The Sub-Advisor's implementation of the Fund's strategy may fail to produce the intended results. Although the Sub-Advisor has managed similar strategies, the Sub-Advisor has not managed them in a mutual fund.

Advisors Capital Small Cap Blend Fund | Sector Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Sector Risk. Sector risk is the possibility that all stocks within the same group of industries will decline in price due to sector-specific market or economic developments. The Fund may be overweight in certain sectors at various times. Financial sector companies are often subject to extensive governmental regulation and the potential for additional burdensome regulation. Industrial sector companies may be adversely affected by supply and demand related to their specific products or services and industrial sector products in general as well as technological developments and introduction of new products. Information technology companies face intense competition and potentially rapid product obsolescence.

Advisors Capital Small Cap Blend Fund | Small-Capitalization Companies Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Small-Capitalization Companies Risk. The stocks of small-capitalization companies may subject the Fund to additional risks. The earnings and prospects of these companies are generally more volatile than larger companies. Small-capitalization companies may experience higher failure rates (bankruptcy) than do larger companies. The trading volume of securities of small-capitalization companies are normally less than that of larger companies and, therefore, may disproportionately affect their market price, tending to make them fall more in response to selling pressure than is the case with larger companies.

Advisors Capital Small Cap Blend Fund | Underlying Funds Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Underlying Funds Risk. The Fund will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any expenses (such as operating expenses and advisory fees) that may be paid by the Underlying Funds. These expenses would be in addition to the advisory fee and other expenses that the Fund bears in connection with its own operations. Investment in an ETF carries security specific risk and the market risk. Also, if the area of the market representing the underlying index or benchmark does not perform as expected for any reason, the value of the investment in the ETF may decline. In addition, due to transactions via market prices rather than at net asset value, the performance of an ETF may not completely replicate the performance of any underlying index.

Advisors Capital Small Cap Blend Fund | Value Investing Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Value Investing Risk. Value investing attempts to identify companies selling at a discount to their intrinsic value or other measure of value. Value investing is subject to the risk that a company's value may never be fully realized by the market or that a company judged by the Sub-Advisor to be undervalued may actually be appropriately priced.
