There are a lot of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) for investors to choose from on the local share market.
So many, it can be hard to decide which ones to buy ahead of others.
To narrow things down, listed below are three ASX ETFs that are highly rated. Here's why they could be good additions to an investment portfolio in 2025 and beyond:
BetaShares Diversified All Growth ETF (ASX: DHHF)
The first ASX ETF that could be worth considering is the BetaShares Diversified All Growth ETF.
It provides investors with exposure to somewhere in the region of 8,000 large, mid, and small cap stocks from Australia, the United States, developed markets, and emerging markets. Betashares, which recently tipped it as one to buy, notes that this gives investors exposure to an "all-cap, all-world" share portfolio with the potential for high growth over the long term. In light of this, it feels it could be suitable for investors with a high tolerance for risk.
At present, its holdings are split approximately 37% Australian equities, 38.8% US equities, 17.7% developed markets, and 6.5% emerging markets.
BetaShares Global Cybersecurity ETF (ASX: HACK)
Another ASX ETF to look at for next year is the BetaShares Global Cybersecurity ETF.
The BetaShares Global Cybersecurity ETF provides investors with access to the leading players in the cybersecurity industry. Which could be a very good thing for an investment portfolio given the industry's significant growth potential.
Betashares points out that McKinsey "suggests that the cybersecurity market is $1.5-$2.0 trillion globally, and at best only 10% penetrated with a very long runway for growth." This is good news for companies held by the fund, such as Accenture and Palo Alto Networks.
BetaShares Crypto Innovators ETF (ASX: CRYP)
A third ASX ETF to consider for 2025 and beyond is the BetaShares Crypto Innovators ETF.
If you think cryptocurrencies are a fad and destined to flop, then stay away from this one. But if you believe they are the future and the industry is going to grow materially over the long term, then this could be the one for you.
The BetaShares Crypto Innovators ETF provides investors with access to the leading players in the industry. This includes pure-play crypto companies, those whose balance sheets are held at least 75% in crypto-assets, and diversified companies with crypto-focused business operations. Clearly, if the crypto market booms over the long term, these are the companies that stand to benefit most.
