If you don't have sufficient funds to build a truly diverse portfolio, then exchange traded funds (ETFs) could be a quick fix.
This is because ETFs give investors access to a large number of different shares through just a single investment.
With that in mind, I have picked out three ETFs that could be good options in September. Here's what you need to know about them:

BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF (ASX: NDQ)
If you're interested in gaining exposure to the US tech sector, then the BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF could be one to consider. This ETF provides investors with access to the 100 largest non-financial shares on the NASDAQ index. Among the 100 shares included in the fund are some of the highest quality companies in the world. This includes giants such as Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Microsoft, Netflix, and Tesla.
iShares Global Consumer Staples ETF (ASX: IXI)
Another ETF to look at in September is the iShares Global Consumer Staples ETF. This fund provides investors with exposure to a large number of global consumer staples companies that produce essential products. These include food, tobacco, and household items. Because demand for these types of products is relatively consistent whatever happens in the economy, this ETF could be suitable for investors that are looking for low risk options. Among its largest holdings are giants such as Coca-Cola, Nestle, PepsiCo, Procter & Gamble, Unilever, and Walmart.
Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares ETF (ASX: VGS)
A final ETF to look at is the Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares ETF. This ETF provides investors with easy access to 1,505 of the world's largest listed companies from major developed countries. Among the well-known companies you'll be buying a slice of are Apple, Johnson & Johnson, JP Morgan, Nestle, Procter & Gamble, and Visa. Vanguard notes that this ETF allows investors to participate in the long-term growth potential of international economies outside Australia.
