If you're looking for an easy way to invest in international shares for diversification purposes, then exchange traded funds (ETFs) could be the answer.

But which ETFs should you look at? Named below are three quality ETFs that could be worth getting better acquainted with. Here's what you need to know about them:

BetaShares Global Energy Companies ETF (ASX: FUEL)

If you're keen to gain exposure to international energy shares while oil prices are high, then the BetaShares Global Energy Companies ETF could be the way to do it. This ETF allows investors to invest in many of the largest energy producers in the world through a single investment. Through this ETF you'll be owning a slice of the likes of BP, Chevron, ExxonMobil, and Royal Dutch Shell. And while oil prices have started to fall, OPEC appears intent on cutting production to ensure they stay higher for longer.

BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF (ASX: NDQ)

Another ETF to buy for international shares is the BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF. If you want to buy many of the highest quality companies in the world in one fell swoop, then this ETF allows you to do it. That's because the BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF allows investors to own a slice of the 100 largest non-financial shares on the famous NASDAQ index. This means you'll be owning shares in giants such as Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Meta, Microsoft, Netflix, and Tesla.

iShares Global Consumer Staples ETF (ASX: IXI)

A final ETF to buy for international exposure is the iShares Global Consumer Staples ETF. This ETF gives investors access to many of the world's largest global consumer staples companies. These are companies that manufacture and sell products that are always in demand with consumers, whatever is happening in the economy. Companies in the fund include Coca-Cola, Nestle, PepsiCo, Procter & Gamble, Unilever, and Walmart.
