SAO PAULO, April 3 (Reuters) - Kaszek Ventures has raised $975 million for investments in startups in Latin America, the venture capital firm said on Monday.

The amount will be directed to two new funds, Kaszek Ventures VI, which will receive $540 million for investments in early-stage startups, and a $435 million fund for later-stage companies in which Kaszek already holds a stake.

Among Kaszek's portfolio companies are digital bank Nubank , financial services firm Creditas and digital real estate broker QuintoAndar.
