If you would like to make some buy and hold investments but aren't keen on stock picking, then it could be worth looking at the exchange-traded funds (ETFs) listed below.

These four ASX ETFs are highly rated and could be good options for investors wanting long-term options.

Here's what you need to know about them:

BetaShares Asia Technology Tigers ETF (ASX: ASIA)

The BetaShares Asia Technology Tigers ETF could be a top ASX ETF to buy and hold. Particularly if you're looking for exposure to the growing Asian economy. That's because this popular ETF gives investors access to the best tech stocks in the region. Many of these are the region's equivalents of the West's biggest and best tech giants. Among its holdings are e-commerce giant Alibaba, search engine leader Baidu, iPhone manufacturer Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, WeChat owner Tencent, and Temu owner Pinduoduo.

Vanguard U.S. Total Market Shares Index ETF (ASX: VTS)

If you're more bullish on the US economy, then it could be worth looking at the Vanguard US Total Market Shares Index ETF. This fund allows investors to buy a part of ~4,000 US listed shares of all shapes and sizes. The fund manager, Vanguard, highlights that this allows investors to participate in the long-term growth potential of the US economy and its listed companies.

BetaShares Global Cybersecurity ETF (ASX: HACK)

Another ASX ETF to consider for a long-term investment is the BetaShares Global Cybersecurity ETF. It provides investors with access to a global cybersecurity sector that is forecast to grow materially over the next decade and beyond. This is being driven by the rising threat of cybercrime and more and more infrastructure moving to the cloud. Among the companies included in the fund are Accenture and Palo Alto Networks.

BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF (ASX: NDQ)

Finally, it would be remiss to not include the hugely popular BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF in this list. It provides access to the biggest and best companies that Wall Street's NASDAQ index has to offer. This includes Amazon, Apple, Microsoft, and Nvidia. So, with these companies all having very bright futures, it certainly could pay to have them in your portfolio.
