I think exchange traded funds (ETFs) can be a great way to build wealth over the long term without having to pick individual winners.
With November approaching, here are three ASX ETFs that could be worth considering for investors looking for exposure to different areas of the global share market.
VanEck MSCI International Quality ETF (ASX: QUAL)
The first ETF to consider is the VanEck MSCI International Quality ETF, which focuses on companies with strong financial fundamentals rather than simply investing in the largest businesses.
Its portfolio is selected using measures such as return on equity, earnings stability and financial leverage, with the aim of identifying companies capable of delivering attractive returns over time.
Among its holdings are payments giant Visa (NYSE: V), which benefits from the ongoing shift towards electronic payments, and ASML Holding (NASDAQ: ASML), whose advanced lithography equipment plays a critical role in semiconductor manufacturing.
These are businesses with established competitive advantages and important positions in their respective industries.
With approximately 300 holdings across developed markets, the fund could be an attractive option for investors seeking international growth exposure with an emphasis on financial quality.
Vanguard FTSE Emerging Markets Shares ETF (ASX: VGE)
Another ASX ETF worth considering in November is the Vanguard FTSE Emerging Markets Shares ETF.
This fund provides exposure to thousands of companies across emerging economies, including China, Taiwan, India and Brazil.
Its holdings include Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TWSE: 2330), the world's leading contract chipmaker, and Tencent Holdings (SEHK: 0700), whose businesses span gaming, social media, digital payments and other internet services.
These companies illustrate how emerging markets are home to major businesses that play an important role in the global economy.
While investing in these markets comes with additional political, currency and regulatory risks, the fund offers an opportunity to participate in long-term economic development outside traditional developed markets.
It could therefore be a good addition for investors whose international exposure is currently concentrated in US shares.
Betashares Global Cybersecurity ETF (ASX: HACK)
A final ASX ETF to consider is the Betashares Global Cybersecurity ETF. It provides targeted exposure to companies protecting businesses and governments against digital threats.
As organisations move more operations into the cloud and become increasingly reliant on connected systems, cybersecurity is becoming an essential part of their technology spending.
The fund owns companies such as Palo Alto Networks (NASDAQ: PANW), which provides network and cloud security solutions, and CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD). It is a specialist in endpoint protection and threat detection.
Both are positioned to benefit from organisations investing in stronger security capabilities as cyber threats become more sophisticated.
This ETF is more concentrated than the other two and its shares can be volatile, particularly when valuations for technology companies are elevated.
However, the continuing need to defend digital infrastructure provides a compelling long-term growth opportunity, making it worth considering for investors comfortable with a higher-risk investment.
