And I'm new to my current role about 6 months, so this change could mean a small step towards the AML/Compliance scene. I prefer to do this as I'm tired of chasing the numbers, but at the same time I wonder about the prospects.

I think you already have the answer.
This sounds like a great opportunity for you to gain some experience into a new market. A market that has seen alot of traction in the past few years and since the regulations are going to stay, the job is going to be there.
It is also a very decent offer like you said, only drawback would be the contract would be with the outsourced company. Anyway anyhow promotions and title shouldn't be a great concern to you know as once you have your 2 years experience with the PB you could always make a jump up externally.
