Are you interested in boosting your portfolio with some exchange traded funds (ETFs) in September?

If you are, then you may want to look at these highly rated ETFs listed below. Here's what you need to know about them:

BetaShares Asia Technology Tigers ETF (ASX: ASIA)

If you want to gain exposure to the growing Asian economy, then the BetaShares Asia Technology Tigers ETF could help you achieve it. This ETF gives investors a slice of a number of the most promising tech shares in the Asian market.

This means you'll be owning companies such as ecommerce giant Alibaba, search engine company Baidu, online retail platform Pinduoduo, and WeChat owner Tencent. These are some of the quickest growing tech companies in the region, with millions of active users and very bright growth prospects.

It is worth noting that the ETF has pulled back materially recently amid concerns over a crackdown by Chinese authorities. While this is disappointing, it could be seen as a buying opportunity for long term focused investors. Particularly given the extremely bright outlooks that the companies in the fund have.

BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF (ASX: NDQ)

Another ETF to look at is the BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF. It aims to track the performance of the NASDAQ 100 Index before fees and expenses. This index comprises 100 of the largest non-financial companies listed on the NASDAQ stock exchange. This includes many tech companies that are at the forefront of the new economy.

BetaShares highlights that this area of the market is underrepresented on the Australian share market. As a result, it feels the ETF could benefit investors that have large exposure to financials and mining companies and little exposure to technology.

The index has been tipped to continue its outperformance over the next decade thanks to the quality of the companies included within it. Among the companies you'll be buying a slice of are global giants such as Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Microsoft, Netflix, Nvidia, and Tesla.

In respect to Apple, analysts believe it has a very bright outlook thanks to the strong demand for its iPhones, iPads, MacBooks, and Apple Watches. It also has a quick growing services business, which is generating significant recurring revenues. This business has over 600 million subscribers across its Apple Arcade, Apple Fitness+, Apple Music, Apple News, Apple Pay, and Apple TV+ offerings.
