A new month is here, so what better time to make some new additions to your investment portfolio.
If exchange traded funds (ETFs) are on your radar, then it could be worth taking a look at the three listed below.
They provide investors with exposure to groups of companies from a range of sectors and locations. Here's why they could be top options in December:
BetaShares Crypto Innovators ETF (ASX: CRYP)
For investors interested in the cryptocurrency industry but hesitant to own coins directly, the BetaShares Crypto Innovators ETF offers an alternative pathway. This ASX ETF is designed to provide exposure to the broader crypto ecosystem, capturing the growth of the industry without the need for direct involvement in individual cryptocurrencies.
The fund's portfolio includes a diverse mix of companies with significant ties to the crypto market. These includes pure-play crypto companies and those with at least 75% of their balance sheets held in crypto-assets. In addition, the ETF includes diversified companies actively engaged in crypto-centric operations, such as payment platforms, mining, or blockchain development.
If the cryptocurrency market thrives and adoption continues to accelerate, the companies within this ETF stand to benefit significantly from their important roles in the ecosystem.
BetaShares Diversified All Growth ETF (ASX: DHHF)
Another ASX ETF worth considering for your portfolio in December is the BetaShares Diversified All Growth ETF.
It was recently named by BetaShares as a top option for investors right now. The fund provides exposure to a globally diversified portfolio of approximately 8,000 stocks. Its holdings span large, mid, and small-cap companies across Australia, the US, developed markets, and emerging markets.
This could make it an attractive option for investors aiming to build wealth over the long term while capitalising on the growth potential of leading companies worldwide.
BetaShares Asia Technology Tigers ETF (ASX: ASIA)
A third ASX ETF to consider in December is the BetaShares Asia Technology Tigers ETF. This ETF offers investors easy access to some of the most prominent and innovative technology companies in the Asia-Pacific region, excluding Japan.
The fund is designed to tap into Asia's rapidly expanding tech sector, driven by a growing middle class and a tech-savvy population. Many of the companies in this fund appear well-positioned for long-term growth, as they cater to the increasing demand for e-commerce, digital services, and advanced technologies across the region.
Among its holdings are leading names such as e-commerce giant Alibaba and PDD Holdings. The latter is the parent company of Temu and Pinduoduo. These companies are at the forefront of Asia's tech revolution and are benefiting from the region's transformation into a global technology hub.
