Commercial Banking to PM Wealth Management Thoughts

Currently am a credit analyst at a regional bank in a rotational program (20BB) and have networked an opportunity to make a jump to their wealth management private investment team (20BB AUM). Role would be portfolio management, trading, and research. Would this be a bad move to make and should I stay in my commercial banking track or take the leap?
