Creek Equity
Scott Zack and Creek Equity
The private investment company Scott owns in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan.
The company
Creek Equity founds companies, provides early capital to founders, and acquires established businesses with room to grow.
It invests its own capital and measures success over decades rather than quarters. Because it does not run a fund for outside investors, Creek Equity can hold a good business for as long as the business deserves.
Creek Equity operates under a written Investment Policy Statement. Capital is held in four tiers, core, growth, aspirational, and a liquidity reserve, each with its own purpose and time horizon. Every direct investment goes to an investment committee with a written memo.
Scott's role
Owner and lead investor
Scott leads Creek Equity's investment decisions and works directly with the leadership of each company it owns. He is involved in the work: reviewing results, helping recruit leaders, and planning the next stage of growth with each management team.
What he looks for has not changed in twenty years: operators who know their business cold, a product customers already want, a plan he can explain in a page, and a reason to believe the business can be meaningfully larger with the right partner.
