At the weekend I looked at how $20,000 investments in a number of ASX shares have fared over the last decade.

Given the success of these investments, today I thought I would look at a few shares which I think investors ought to invest $20,000 into today for the next 10 years.

Here why I think these three top ASX shares could provide strong returns for investors:

Bravura Solutions Ltd (ASX: BVS)

Bravura Solutions is a fintech company providing software and services to the wealth management and funds administration industries. The key product in its portfolio is the Sonata wealth management platform. Sonata allows users to connect and engage with their clients anytime, anywhere, through computers, tablets or smartphones. It is proving to be very popular with financial institutions due to the way it simplifies legacy client systems into one unified customer-centric solution. Also supporting its growth in the future will be the recent acquisitions of Midwinter and Finocomp. These have strengthened its offering and opened the company up to new and lucrative markets.

Jumbo Interactive (ASX: JIN)

Another option for that $20,000 investment is Jumbo. It is an online lottery ticket seller and the operator of the Oz Lotteries website. Its shares have fallen heavily in recent months due to concerns over its slowing growth. However, this has been caused by an increased investment in the future growth of its software-as-a-service (SaaS) business. I think this selling has been overdone and created a buying opportunity for investors. Especially when you consider its massive market opportunity. Last year management noted that approximately 7% of the world's lottery tickets are sold online. This implies that 93% of a ~US$300 billion global market has yet to transition online. Jumbo is aiming to grow its ticket sales to $1 billion per annum by FY 2022, which is still only scratching at the surface of the overall market.

NEXTDC Ltd (ASX: NXT)

Another ASX share for investors to consider investing $20,000 into is NEXTDC. I think it is a great way to gain exposure to the rapidly growing cloud computing market. This is because NEXTDC's world class data centres have been experiencing a material increase in demand for capacity over the last few years. And with more infrastructure expected to shift over to the cloud in the next decade, it looks well-positioned to profit greatly.
