HECHT, Justice.
The Iowa Supreme Court Attorney Disciplinary Board (Board) charged Robert Wright Jr. with violations of the Iowa Rules of Professional Conduct based on Wright’s conduct in persuading several of his clients to loan money to another client. A division of the Grievance Commission of the Supreme Court of Iowa found Wright’s actions violated several ethical rules and recommended a suspension of his license to practice law. Wright has appealed from the commission’s recommendation. After reviewing the record, we find Wright committed ethical violations warranting a suspension.
