FTAC Ventures, an investment firm co-led by financial-services veteran Betsy Z. Cohen, is in discussions to raise a debut fund dedicated to financial-technology bets, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

The company has begun meeting with prospective investors as it seeks to raise $300 million for a fund ahead of a targeted first close during the first quarter of 2022, said one of the people, who requested anonymity because the talks are private. A final close is expected later next year.
