Cross is a partner at DLA Piper, New Zealand’s only global business law firm. She has more than 20 years' experience with DLA Piper as a leading lawyer in the funds management and superannuation industry.
AIA New Zealand’s chair, Theresa Gattung, says Tracey Cross will bring valuable expertise to the Board.

Cross says she is looking forward to being part of such an experienced and diverse Board. Her appointment brings the diversity of AIA’s board to three women directors out of a total of seven directors.
“I am delighted to be part of AIA New Zealand. Joining an organisation with a focus on best practice conduct aligns with my professional expertise and personal passions. I am an advocate for diversity and in my role as Chair of DLA Piper NZ's Leadership Alliance for Women, I lead initiatives that support the advancement of our female lawyers into leadership. As chair of Women in Super, I represent women's interests in financial literacy education and retirement planning, and support educational programmes within schools to empower young women.”
