If you're looking for an easy way to invest your hard-earned money this week, then exchange traded funds (ETFs) could be the way to do it.

But which ETFs might be top options right now? Listed below are three quality ETFs that could be worth considering in April:

iShares Global Consumer Staples ETF (ASX: IXI)

The first ETF for investors to look at is the iShares Global Consumer Staples ETF. It could be a top option if you're concerned with how interest rates will impact global economic growth. That's because even if a recession were to occur, the companies included in this ETF are likely to remain well-placed to navigate the crisis. This is due to the ETF giving investors exposure to many of the world's largest global consumer staples and demand for their products being relatively consistent whatever is happening in the economy. Coca-Cola, Nestle, PepsiCo, Procter & Gamble, Unilever, and Walmart all feature in the ETF.

VanEck Vectors Morningstar Wide Moat ETF (ASX: MOAT)

If you are a fan of Warren Buffett's investment style, then the VanEck Vectors Morningstar Wide Moat ETF could be worth considering. That's because when Buffett looks for an investment, he has a penchant for companies with sustainable competitive advantages and fair valuations. And these are the qualities that this ETF has been built around. It currently includes approximately 50 companies including Alphabet, Boeing, Kellogg Co, Meta Platforms, and Walt Disney.

Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares ETF (ASX: VGS)

A final ETF for investors to look at is the Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares ETF. If you're wanting to diversify your portfolio quickly, then this ETF could be the way to do it. That's because it gives investors access to approximately 1,500 of the world's largest listed companies. This means it provides significant diversity and also allows investors to take part in the long term growth potential of international economies. Among the its largest holdings are giants including Amazon, Apple, Nestle, Procter & Gamble, Tesla, and Visa.
