How to invest in the ASX 200

How do I invest in the ASX 200 as a complete beginner? It seems like a smart and relatively low-risk option to me, but I’m unsure which ETF to choose. Would it be a bad idea to invest only in this? Why might someone choose a different investment strategy? Thanks!

Hi Amir.

There is honestly not much difference between the ASX 200 ETFs, they are essentially the same just with a slightly different fee and ETF manager.

The most popular options on the pearler platform are A200, and VAS (which tracks the top 300 rather than 200, but again makes little difference).

People tend to invest also in international markets such as the US, for the purpose of diversification. The Shares page will show you the favourite ETFs in the community for that too, which can help with your research: https://pearler.com/explore/invest/shares

Cheers, Dave
