How long to spend studying for UK Regs + Securities Exams

Hello,

Incoming Analyst at a BB in London and I have to sit two sets of exams; UK Financial Regulation and Securities.

How long should be enough to study? I have no clue if we get time off to study for these, or if we're expected to study alongside work. Any insights would be much appreciated!
