Three principles that do the heavy lifting

Getting started is the most important step. From there, stay on track by keeping your portfolio easy to manage over time.

Be diversified

Gain exposure to thousands of companies, not a handful. Diversification helps to reduce single-stock and single-country risk.

Keep costs low

Fees compound against you. Low-cost ETFs let more of your returns stay invested.

Stay invested

Time in the market beats timing the market. Keep contributing and compounding will do the work.

Made for all kinds of investors

You don’t need to be an expert. You just need to start.

Still have questions?

What is the difference between DHHF and A200 + BGBL?

DHHF can be considered for an all-in-one share ETF solution. It gives you exposure to Australian shares, global developed market shares and emerging markets in one diversified all-growth ETF.

A200 + BGBL can be considered for a two-ETF diversified share portfolio. A200 gives you Australian shares exposure, while BGBL gives you global developed market shares exposure. This gives you more control over how much of your portfolio is allocated to Australia versus global developed markets.

What does DHHF and A200 + BGBL invest in?

DHHF invests in a diversified portfolio of Australian and international shares through a blend of underlying ETFs. With a single investment, investors gain exposure to approximately 8,000 companies across developed and emerging markets around the world.

A200 + BGBL provides diversified shares exposure using two separate ETFs. A200 invests in 200 of the largest companies by market capitalisation listed on the Australian Securities Exchange, while BGBL invests in more than 1,300 companies across developed global markets. Together, they can be used to gain broad exposure to Australian and international shares, while allowing investors to choose their preferred allocation between the two.

In simple terms: both approaches provide diversified exposure to Australian and global share markets. The main difference is that DHHF packages everything into a single ETF, while A200 + BGBL allows you to manage the Australian and global allocations yourself.

How can I invest in these ETFs?

You can buy and sell units in an ETF during trading hours (generally Monday to Friday between 10:00am and 4:00pm AEST) through a stockbroker, financial adviser or online broker, the same way you would buy and sell individual stocks. You can also invest via Betashares Direct with $0 brokerage.

Refer to the PDS for information on interest retained by Betashares on cash balances.

Can I speak to someone if I need help?

Yes. Our support team is based in Australia and made up of real people who understand investing and our products. If you have a question, you can speak to someone directly — typically within a couple of minutes.

You can contact the support team Mon-Fri 9am – 5pm AEST via phone (1300 487 577) or by sending an email to [email protected].
