If you're looking for an easy way to invest in international shares for diversification, then exchange traded funds (ETFs) could be the answer.
But which ETFs should you look at? Listed below are three excellent ETFs that could be worth getting better acquainted with in December. Here's what you need to know:
BetaShares Asia Technology Tigers ETF (ASX: ASIA)
The first ETF to look at is the BetaShares Asia Technology Tigers ETF. It provides investors with easy access to a number of the most promising tech shares in the Asian market. This means you'll be owning a slice of well-known companies such as ecommerce giant Alibaba, search engine company Baidu, and WeChat owner Tencent. There are also a number of lesser known companies included in the fund, such as Meituan Dianping and Pinduoduo, with explosive growth potential. And while regulatory issues in China have been weighing on sentiment, there are signs now that the worst could be over.
BetaShares Global Cybersecurity ETF (ASX: HACK)
Another ASX ETF for investors to consider is the BetaShares Global Cybersecurity ETF. This ETF gives investors exposure to the leading companies in the global cybersecurity sector. Given the growing number of cyberattacks globally and how much infrastructure is now in the cloud, demand for cybersecurity services is expected to rise strongly in the future. This bodes well for companies included in the fund. This includes Accenture, Cisco, Cloudflare, Crowdstrike, Okta, Palo Alto Networks, and Splunk.
VanEck Vectors Video Gaming and eSports ETF (ASX: ESPO)
A final ETF for ASX investors to look at is the VanEck Vectors Video Gaming and eSports ETF. This ETF gives investors exposure to a portfolio of the largest companies involved in video game development, hardware, and esports. Among the quality companies you'll be buying a slice of are Activision Blizzard, AMD, Electronic Arts, Nintendo, Nvidia, Roblox, and Take-Two. VanEck notes that these companies are well-placed to benefit from the increasing popularity of video games and eSports.
