Prospectus [Line Items]
Strategy [Heading]	Principal Investment Strategies
Strategy Narrative [Text Block]	The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes (measured at the time of purchase) (“Net Assets”) in equity securities issued by small-, mid- and large-cap U.S. companies. Equity securities represent an ownership interest, or the right to acquire an ownership interest, in an issuer. Equity securities include, among other things, common stocks. A U.S. company is an issuer economically tied to the United States. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, in companies that are considered by the Investment Adviser to be positioned for long-term growth of capital. Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM” or the “Investment Adviser”) uses a combination of fundamental research and quantitative factors to achieve its investment objective. The Fund’s fundamental equity growth investment process involves evaluating potential investments based on specific characteristics believed to identify high-quality businesses with sustainable growth prospects, including strong business franchises, favorable long-term prospects, and excellent management. The Investment Adviser may integrate environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) factors alongside traditional fundamental factors as part of its fundamental research process. No one factor or consideration is determinative in the stock selection process. Investments will be further evaluated for their exposures to quantitative factors, such as, for example, valuation, profitability and volatility, to seek to enhance the Fund’s risk adjusted returns. Risk management, portfolio construction and sizing of positions will be informed by portfolio-level quantitative factor considerations. The Investment Adviser may decide to sell a position for various reasons, including when a company’s fundamental outlook deteriorates, because of valuation and price considerations, for risk management purposes, or when a company is deemed to be misallocating capital. Although the Fund invests primarily in publicly traded U.S. securities, it may invest up to 20% of its Net Assets in foreign securities, including securities of issuers in countries with emerging markets or economies (“emerging countries”) and securities quoted in foreign currencies. The Fund may also invest in privately held companies and companies that only recently began to trade publicly. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its Net Assets in fixed income securities (including high yield fixed income securities), such as government, corporate and bank debt obligations. The Fund is an actively managed ETF, which is a fund that trades like other publicly traded securities. The Fund is not an index fund and does not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index. The Investment Adviser measures the Fund’s performance against the S&P 500® Index.
