In presence of catalyst both the forward and reverse reaction rates will be speed up equally there by allowing the system to reach equilibrium faster.it is very importent to keep in mind that the addition of catalyst has no effect what so ever on the final equilibrium position of the reaction

recall that for a reversible rection, the equlibrium state is  one in which the forward and reverse rection rates are equal in the presence of catalyst both forward and reverse rection rate will speed up equally there by allowing the system to reach equlibrium faster.
