BetaShares Asia Technology Tigers ETF (ASX: ASIA)

The first exciting ETF for investors look at this month is the BetaShares Asia Technology Tigers ETF.

This popular ETF gives investors easy access to ~50 of the largest technology companies that have their main area of business in Asia.

Among the tigers that you'll be owning are well-known tech companies such as Alibaba, Baidu, Infosys, JD.com, Samsung, and Tencent Holdings.

There are also a number of high quality companies that are lesser known outside Asia such as Kuaishou Technology, Meituan Dianping, and Pinduoduo in the fund. The latter is an ecommerce platform that connects distributors with consumers directly through an interactive shopping experience. At the last count, it had an active customer base of approximately 750 million. This makes Kogan.com Ltd (ASX: KGN) and its 3.6 million active customers look like tiny.

Though, one thing to remember with this ETF is that its significant exposure to China means there are regulatory risks to consider. So, this makes it a higher risk option for investors.

BetaShares Global Cybersecurity ETF (ASX: HACK)

Another exciting ETF for ASX investors to consider is the BetaShares Global Cybersecurity ETF.

The recent hacks of Medibank Private Ltd (ASX: MPL) and Optus demonstrate just how important cybersecurity has become for businesses. In light of this, it is no wonder the industry is tipped to grow materially in the future.

This bodes well for the companies included in the HACK ETF, which look well-placed to benefit from increasing investment on cybersecurity.

Among the ETF's holdings are leading cybersecurity players including Accenture, Cisco, Cloudflare, Crowdstrike, Fortinet, Okta, and Splunk.
