My background is retail banking & investment/wealth management. However, I’m think of making a transition into a new role. The issue I’m running into is taking a pay cut. Love to know you role & salary?

What area are you looking to move into? I do FP&A for startups and make 110k with 3 YOE in the Bay Area, CA plus stock options

Yes, I think it depends on what location and type of new role you are looking into, and if that aligns with your cost of living/lifestyle. I make $120k/yr. as a financial analyst in Seattle.

There are a lot of contributing factors like your location, YOE, the company and COL. But I think a pay cut would not be an issue if it's not that significant. You can still ask for an increase after several months.

I'm not sure knowing random roles and salaries is going to help your search, honestly. It would probably make more sense to identify interests and desireable directions first, then identify roles in those directions and search out pay information for them. Or, if you're strictly salary-motivated, simply search for the highest paid roles you qualify for regardless of interest. Be careful to avoid burnout, though.
