When considering expanding your ETF portfolio alongside VESG, it’s important to think about diversification and your investment goals. VESG, which focuses on socially responsible global stocks, provides a good base in ethical investing. Adding another ETF can help diversify your investments and potentially enhance your returns, depending on the market conditions and the specific ETF’s focus.
Here’s a brief overview of the ETFs you’re considering:
IVV (iShares S&P 500 ETF): This ETF tracks the S&P 500 and is focused solely on the US market. It’s a good option if you’re looking to gain exposure to some of the largest and most influential companies in the U.S. This can complement VESG by providing focused exposure to the U.S. market, which is known for its growth potential.
VAS (Vanguard Australian Shares Index ETF): VAS tracks the performance of the ASX 300 index, offering broad exposure to the Australian market. This could be a good complement to VESG if you’re looking to balance your international exposure with some domestic investments.
VDHG (Vanguard Diversified High Growth Index ETF): VDHG is an all-in-one diversified portfolio that is predominantly focused on high-growth assets. It includes a mix of different Vanguard funds, including VAS and VGS, providing a comprehensive solution that targets higher returns but with higher risk. This could be a strategic addition if your investment goal aligns with a higher risk-return profile.
HACK (BetaShares Global Cybersecurity ETF): This ETF provides exposure to the global cybersecurity sector, which includes companies that are involved in the provision of cybersecurity and related services. Investing in HACK could be a strategic move if you’re looking to capitalize on the growth of the tech and cybersecurity industries.
Considering these options, your choice should align with your overall investm

Hi Vijay,
It depends what kind of strategy you want to follow and why.
There is some overlap between VESG and IVV as well as VDHG – all contain large US shares. Just something t be aware of.
HACK is a bit different if you wanted to make a particular bet on those companies and that theme in general. VAS also offers something different being the Aussie market, which it looks like you might not have any exposure to currently.
All the best,
Dave
