What would be your recommendation for sites/banks to invest? and how to build a portfolio to maximize tax relief and security? Any thoughts on SRS accounts?

SRS gives you a tax break now but when funds are finally paid out (after retirement age) you have to pay tax based on 50% of distributions at a rate based on your income at the time.
At retirement age, you are likely to have less income (its called retirement for a reason) so you have some control over the tax payable.
It isn't a fantastic benefit (eg CPF SA cash topups are fully deductible with no backend catch) but if you can plan ahead appropriately, then it is worthwhile to investigate.
