| Bar Chart and Performance Table [Heading] | Performance Information |
| Performance Narrative [Text Block] | The information shows you how the Fund’s performance has varied year by year and provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The table compares the Fund’s performance to that of the FTSE World Index and the Reference Benchmark, which is comprised of the returns of the S&P 500® Index (36%), the FTSE World (ex U.S.) Index (24%), the ICE BofA Current 5-Year U.S. Treasury Index (24%), and the FTSE Non-U.S. Dollar World Government Bond Index (16%). The Reference Benchmark is relevant to the Fund because it has characteristics similar to the Fund’s investment strategies. As with all such investments, past performance is not an indication of future results. The bar chart and table do not reflect separate account fees and expenses. If they did, returns would be less than those shown. To the extent that dividends and distributions have been paid by the Fund, the performance information for the Fund in the chart and table assumes reinvestment of the dividends and distributions. If the Fund’s investment manager and its affiliates had not waived or reimbursed certain Fund expenses during these periods, the Fund’s returns would have been lower.
