If you have $1,000 to invest in the share market, then it could be worth considering the exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in this article. Especially if you're not confident with stock picking. That's because these funds provide investors with easy access to large groups of shares with a single click of the button.

Here's why these ASX ETFs could be great options for a $1,000 investment in September:

BetaShares Asia Technology Tigers ETF (ASX: ASIA)

The first ASX ETF to look at is the BetaShares Asia Technology Tigers ETF. This ETF gives investors access to the best tech stocks in the Asian region (but excluding Japan). Among its holdings are ecommerce behemoth Alibaba, search engine giant Baidu, iPhone manufacturer Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, and WeChat owner Tencent. These companies appear well-placed for growth over the long term thanks to Asia's growing middle class and its tech-savvy population.

BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF (ASX: NDQ)

Another ASX ETF to consider for a $1,000 investment is the BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF. It allows investors to own a slice of the 100 largest non-financial shares on the famous NASDAQ index. This is where you'll find all the big tech giants that offer products and services that we use every day. This includes search engines, streaming services, mobile phones, spreadsheets, electric vehicles, and online shopping platforms. Among its largest holdings are Apple, Microsoft, and Nvidia. And with the Nasdaq being sold off overnight, today's pullback could be a good opportunity to pick up shares.

iShares S&P 500 ETF (ASX: IVV)

A third ASX ETF that could be a top pick for investors this month is the iShares S&P 500 ETF. This could be a great option if you want exposure to the companies included in the BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF and a bit more diversity. That's because this fund gives you access to the 500 of the largest companies on Wall Street. This includes companies from all sides of the market as well as the tech sector.

VanEck Vectors Morningstar Wide Moat ETF (ASX: MOAT)

A final ASX ETF that could be a great option for a $1,000 investment is the VanEck Vectors Morningstar Wide Moat ETF. It has delivered very strong returns for investors in recent years. This has been driven by its focus on investing in high-quality companies with fair valuations and sustainable competitive advantages. These are the qualities that legendary investor Warren Buffett looks for when making investments. And given Buffett's track record over multiple decades, it certainly could be a good idea to follow his investment lead.
