Mercantilism requires that the colonies exclusively trade with the metropole in order to provide it the economic advantage of being the sole source of finished goods for the colonies. The Navigation Acts prevented the colonists from going to foreign ports or have foreign ships dock for trading in colonial ports in order to preserve the exclusivity required by the mercantilist system.
