BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF (ASX: NDQ)

The first ETF to look at this month is the BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF.

This ETF aims to track the performance of the famous NASDAQ 100 index. This is an index that comprises 100 of the largest non-financial companies listed on the famous NASDAQ exchange.

This includes many companies that are at the forefront of the new economy such as Amazon, Apple, Microsoft, Netflix, and Tesla. BetaShares notes that this strong focus on technology provides investors with diversified exposure to a high-growth potential sector that is under-represented on the Australian share market.

But it isn't all technology. The ETF is also home to a few non-tech giants. This includes the likes of Mondelez International, Monster Beverage, Starbucks, Walgreens Boots, and Warner Bros Discovery Inc.

Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares ETF (ASX: VGS)

Another ETF for investors to look at in April is the Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares ETF.

This ETF provides investors with exposure to approximately 1,500 of the world's largest listed companies from major developed countries.

The fund manager, Vanguard, highlights that this provides investors with low-cost access to a broadly diversified range of stocks that allows them to participate in the long-term growth potential of international economies.

Among the ETF's largest holdings are household names such a Apple, Johnson & Johnson, JP Morgan, Nestle, Procter & Gamble, and Visa.
