The power to establish a national bank is classified as an implied power of Congress. While the U.S. Constitution does not explicitly grant Congress the authority to create a national bank, it is derived from the Necessary and Proper Clause, which allows Congress to enact laws deemed necessary to carry out its enumerated powers. This interpretation was famously upheld in the Supreme Court case McCulloch v. Maryland (1819).
