A major US–Ukraine energy and minerals deal, set to be signed today (Friday), could have major economic and geopolitical ramifications for both countries and global markets.

While we await specifics on the deal, which could be worth as much as $500bn, Ukraine is set to give 50% of the profits from the extraction of natural resources to an investment fund in which the US would have significant, but not 100%, control.
