If you're looking for an easy way to invest your hard-earned money, then exchange traded funds (ETFs) could be worth considering.

Rather than deciding on which individual shares you should put your funds into, ETFs allow you to invest in a large group of shares through just a single investment.

With that in mind, here are two ETFs that are highly rated:

BetaShares Global Energy Companies ETF (ASX: FUEL)

The first ETF that investors might want to look at is the BetaShares Global Energy Companies ETF.

As you might have guessed from its name, this ETF provides investors with an easy way to gain exposure to the booming energy sector.

And while oil prices have recently softened, they look unlikely to fall much lower. Particularly given how oil cartel OPEC has threatened to cut production to boost prices.

This would be good news for the companies held by the fund. These include BP, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, ExxonMobil, Halliburton, Kinder Morgan, Phillips 66, Royal Dutch Shell, and Total. BetaShares notes that these companies are larger, more geographically diversified, and more vertically integrated than Australian-listed energy companies.

VanEck Vectors Video Gaming and eSports ETF (ASX: ESPO)

Another ETF for investors to consider is the VanEck Vectors Video Gaming and eSports ETF.

This ETF gives investors access to a portfolio of the largest companies involved in video game development, hardware, and esports. This is an industry benefiting from an estimated 2.7 billion+ gamers globally, which is more than active Apple phones and Netflix subscriptions combined.

According to Statista, revenue in the video games segment is projected to reach US$208.60 billion in 2022 and then grow almost 8% per annum through to US$304.70 billion by 2027.

This bodes well for the companies included in the fund such as graphics processing unit developer Nvidia and gaming giants Electronic Arts, Nintendo, Roblox, Take-Two, and Tencent.
