In the past years, we have built up a complete and representative sample of bright serendipitous XMM-Newton sources selected at high galactic latitude (>20deg), the XMM-NEWTON BRIGHT SERENDIPITOUS SURVEY (XBS). The XBS Survey consists of two flux-limited (> 7E-14 cgs) samples selected in the 0.5-4.5 keV (XMM-BSS, 389 sources; spectroscopic ID rate=87%) and 4.5-7.5 keV (XMM-HBS,67 sources; spectroscopic ID rate=97%) energy bands. We discuss here the physical and cosmological properties of the AGN in the HBSS sample (which is now almost completely identified) and compare our results both with the unification schemes of AGN and with the predictions of the synthesis models of the X-ray background based on the combination of absorbed and unabsorbed AGN.
