Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs)

Exchange-traded funds let you buy a whole basket of shares in a single trade, making them a popular way for Australian investors to diversify without having to pick individual stocks. Whether you're after broad exposure to the ASX 200, a slice of the US tech giants, or a more targeted play on a theme like gold, defence, or clean energy, there's likely an ETF built for it.

Below, we track the latest ASX ETF news, launches, and fund picks. New to ETFs? Check out our Guide to Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) for the fundamentals, or start with our Investing Education hub if you're just getting started with investing altogether.
