Recommendation | COMMIT |
Proposed Commitment | TBD |
Rationale | Kaszek is the preeminent LATAM VC franchise. Fund I/II returns are top-decile globally (not just LATAM), anchored by the Nubank investment (100x+). The founders' MercadoLibre pedigree gives them unmatched access to the best LATAM tech founders. LATAM has a structural opportunity: 660M people, 40%+ unbanked, mobile-first adoption, and a fintech regulatory tailwind (PIX in Brazil, CoDi in Mexico). Commitment of $50M provides diversified exposure to 30-40 early-stage companies across the region. |
Next Steps
- Finalize legal review of LPA
- Complete reference checks
