Exchange traded funds (ETFs) continue to grow in popularity with investors and it isn’t hard to see why.

ETFs allow investors to gain exposure to sectors, themes, markets, and entire countries through a single investment. This means an investor can home in on certain areas of the investment world that they’re particularly bullish on.

But which ETFs could be good options for investors? Listed below are three popular ETFs to research further:

BetaShares Cloud Computing ETF (ASX: CLDD)

The first ETF to look at is the BetaShares Cloud Computing ETF. This ETF gives investors exposure to leading global companies involved in the delivery of computing services, servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics and other services over the internet or cloud. Through this ETF, you’ll be buying a slice of companies such as Dropbox, Netflix, Shopify, and Zoom.

Betashares Global Sustainability Leaders ETF (ASX: ETHI)

Another ETF for ASX investors to research further is the Betashares Global Sustainability Leaders ETF.
