If you're wanting to diversify your portfolio with some international investments, then you could consider exchange traded funds (ETFs).

That's because ETFs give investors easy access to shares from almost all corners and sectors around the world. All through a single investment.

But which ETFs should you consider? Listed below are two ETFs that are popular with investors. Here's what you need to know about them:

BetaShares Global Cybersecurity ETF (ASX: HACK)

The first ASX ETF to look at is the BetaShares Global Cybersecurity ETF. It aims to track the performance of an index that provides investors with exposure to the leading companies in the growing global cybersecurity sector.

BetaShares highlights that in a world where smart, connected devices already far outnumber humans, investors are increasingly recognising the growth opportunities presented by the global cybersecurity sector.

This bodes well for the companies included in the funds which are working to reduce the impact of cybercrime. This includes cybersecurity companies such as Accenture, Cisco, Cloudflare, Crowdstrike, Okta, and Palo Alto Networks.

Despite the tech selloff in 2022, the ETF has still generated a return of 18.7% per annum over the last five years.

VanEck Vectors Morningstar Wide Moat ETF (ASX: MOAT)

Another ETF to consider is the VanEck Vectors Morningstar Wide Moat ETF. It gives investors exposure to a diversified portfolio of attractively priced US companies with sustainable competitive advantages or moats.

An example of a moat is a company with high switching costs. VanEck highlights that switching costs give a company pricing power by locking customers into a unique ecosystem.

Another example is a network effect. It is present when the value of a product or service grows as its user base expands. This means that each additional customer increases the product or service's value exponentially.

Among the ~50 stocks included in the portfolio, you'll find the likes of Adobe, Amazon, Boeing, Constellation Brands, Intel, Mercadolibre, Meta, and Microsoft.

Over the last five years, the ETF has provided investors with a total return of 15.7% per annum.
