HONG KONG (Reuters) - China Tower Corp Ltd's shares were poised to open flat on their debut in Hong Kong on Wednesday, as investors scrambled to obtain a piece of the world's biggest initial public offering (IPO) in two years.

It priced its IPO last week at the bottom of an indicative range, raising $6.9 billion in the world's biggest listing since Postal Savings Bank of China Co Ltd's $7.63 billion Hong Kong float in 2016.

The shares were set to open flat at HK$1.26.
